Stadionul Municipal, Municipal stadium in Bacău, Romania

Stadionul Municipal is a multi-purpose venue in central Bacău with a natural grass field and oval concrete stands. The facility accommodates around 17,500 spectators and features multiple entry gates designed for smooth crowd flow.

Stadionul Municipal opened in 1966 as the home ground of Dinamo Bacău, under the name Nicolae Păduraru, with 17,500 seats. From 1980 the arena was enlarged to 25,000 places and renamed Stadionul Municipal Bacău. Under mayor Dumitru Sechelariu it was renovated repeatedly and took his name; floodlights were installed in 2001, and in 2003 UEFA cleared it for international matches. A 2014 modernisation to 15,000 seats was halted after work began, closing the ground.

The stadium's name changed with its owners: opened as Nicolae Păduraru, it became Stadionul Municipal in 1980, then Dumitru Sechelariu under mayor Sechelariu, who headed the club. It hosted FCM Bacău and SC Bacău, and in 2003 UEFA cleared it for international matches. Since closure it stands abandoned.

The stadium has been closed and unusable since work on the 2014 modernization stopped shortly after it began; a 2017 resumption of the project left it abandoned. It stands in Bacău, and the planned replacement ground is to be built in the CFR district, not on this site.

The stadium's name changed several times: it opened in 1966 as Nicolae Păduraru, became Stadionul Municipal in 1980, and was later renamed Dumitru Sechelariu by mayor Dumitru Sechelariu, who led the team. In 2001, floodlights were installed.
