Behnam Mohammadi Stadium, Football stadium in Masjed Soleiman, Iran.
Behnam Mohammadi Stadium is a sports facility in Masjed Soleiman that holds approximately 8,000 spectators. The playing field uses a mix of natural grass and synthetic materials to maintain usable conditions throughout all seasons.
The stadium was built in 1908 and opened in 1909, marking the beginning of modern sports infrastructure in the country. It served as an important location for football development in the region during its early decades.
Local football teams and their supporters gather regularly at this 8,000-seat venue, making it central to sports development in Khuzestan Province.
The grounds are generally accessible to visitors, and those attending should note that the facility sits under intense sun during summer months. The most comfortable visiting times are early morning or evening hours when temperatures are milder.
Renovations in 2014 brought comprehensive facility improvements, though some original early-20th-century architecture was lost during these upgrades. The stadium nonetheless retains its historical significance as a witness to the region's earliest sports development.
