Estádio de São Luís, Football stadium in Faro, Portugal
The Estádio de São Luís contains 12,000 seats distributed across multiple stands, with a central grandstand facing east toward the city center.
Manuel Santo, returning from the United States, funded the construction of this stadium in 1922, initially naming it Santo Stadium before its 1923 inauguration.
The stadium holds an annual graduation ceremony called Benção das Pastas each May, gathering University of Algarve students for a traditional celebration.
The stands include retail outlets on the ground floor of the east section, providing additional services and revenue streams during match days.
The facility maintained its original structure since 1923 due to construction restrictions caused by surrounding roads and local topography.
