Chernihiv Stadium, Football stadium in Chernihiv, Ukraine
The facility features two symmetrical grandstands with a total capacity of 14,000 seats split between western and eastern sections.
Built in 1936 in a former city garden, the stadium underwent reconstruction in the 1950s after sustaining damage during World War II.
The stadium carries the name of Yuri Gagarin since 1961, and the first cosmonaut visited this sports venue during his trip to Chernihiv in 1964.
The facility provides both modern plastic seating in the western section and traditional wooden benches in the eastern grandstand for spectators.
Russian artillery strikes in March 2022 caused significant damage to the eastern tribune, leading German football club Borussia Dortmund to offer reconstruction assistance.
