Ernst-Happel-Stadion, Multi-purpose stadium in Leopoldstadt, Austria.
The Ernst Happel Stadium stands in the Prater recreational area near the Danube river, featuring a running track around its main football field.
The stadium, constructed between 1929 and 1931 for the Workers' Olympiad, served as a temporary prison during World War II before returning to sports purposes.
The venue changed its name from Prater Stadium to Ernst Happel Stadium in 1992 to commemorate the successful Austrian football manager after his death.
Visitors can reach the stadium via the U2 underground line at the Stadion stop, or by taking tram 21 and bus lines 83A and 84A.
The stadium hosted the UEFA Euro 2008 final match where Spain secured victory against Germany, marking a milestone in European football history.
