The Józef Piłsudski Cracovia Stadium (Polish: Stadion Cracovii im. Józefa Piłsudskiego) is a football stadium located in Kraków, Poland. It is used mostly for football matches and is the home ground of Cracovia. Originally, the first Cracovia stadium was built in 1912. It was demolished in mid-2009. From then until late 2010, an entirely new construction was raised in roughly the same location where the old stadium stood. After reconstruction the stadium holds 15,114 people. The stadium meets the criteria for UEFA Category 3
The stadium's design and construction has been frequently awarded in many architectural contests. In 2010, it was honored with the Janusz Bogdanowskie award, given by the Archi-Szopa Association for the best architectural construction in Kraków City. The stadium is located south of Błonia Park (in the Zwierzyniec district of Cracovia), near the stadium of Cracovia's archrival Wisła Kraków.
The stadium is named after Polish Chief of State, Marshal Józef Piłsudski
