History

Municipal Stadium from Bacău was opened in 1966 and was the home ground of FCM Bacău and SC Bacău.

The stadium was renovated several times over the years. In 2014 a modernization project was approved for the stadium. The capacity would be reduced to 15,000, but the stadium would benefit from having modern facilities. However, shortly after the work began, the project was stopped and the stadium was closed, becoming unusable.^[1]

In the spring of 2017 the modernization project was resumed. The Municipality of Bacău allocated funds for the continuation of the works.^[2]
