Buzánszky Jenő Stadion, Football stadium in Dorog, Hungary
Buzánszky Jenő Stadion is a north–south oriented football ground in central Dorog, bordered by Köztársaság út, Iskola utca, Vasút-sor and the Zsigmondy Vilmos housing estate. Its grass pitch is ringed by a six-lane cinder running track, stands and a changing-room building, within a 6,334-square-metre sports complex. The complex's main designer was Gáthy Zoltán.
The stadium opened in 1921 and has served as a football center in the region ever since. Over the decades, important matches and sporting events have taken place here, shaping its role in local sports.
The stadium is named after Jenő Buzánszky, a player from Hungary's golden era of football in the 1950s. This tribute reflects how much the sport shaped local pride and community identity.
The ground sits in the centre of Dorog, bounded by Köztársaság út, Iskola utca, Vasút-sor and the Zsigmondy Vilmos housing estate, on a 6,334-square-metre plot. It is a full sports centre rather than a single pitch: besides the north-south grass football field and six-lane cinder running track, the site holds a sports hall, swimming pool, wrestling hall, floodlit artificial training pitch, bowling lanes, beach volleyball court, sauna and fitness room. Since 2012 the Dorog City Unified Sports Institution has run it.
The stadium's record capacity of 15,000 was officially certified in 1963; under current rules it holds 10,000, or 6,000 if converted to FIFA standards. The ground also hosted figures far beyond football, among them the Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, and Cardinal József Mindszenty's era church leaders such as Serédi Jusztinián.
