Description


The stadium was built in 1936 specifically for Shakhtar (Stakhanovets) Stalino with the most recent reconstruction in 2000. It is located in the central city's park near a big pond. The park itself is located on a border of Kuibyshevskyi, Leninskyi and Voroshylovskyi districts.


1995 explosion


On 15 October 1995, soon after the start of a football match between Shakhtar and Tavriya, a large explosion killed several people, including the local criminal Akhat Bragin and his security consisting of five men, all of whom died instantly. None of the 2,000 stadium's spectators suffered any injuries, but a buffet waitress was taken to a hospital in critical condition.[1] Due to the explosion the game was interrupted and postponed for two weeks being rescheduled for 31 October 1995.[2] Russian newsmedia informed that Bragin had purchased control of FC Shakhtar Donetsk in 1994; Bragin had survived two previous assassination attempts involving automatic rifles.[1] After the explosion, a special investigative commission was organized, consisting of various agencies including Ministry of Internal Affairs, Security Service of Ukraine, and General Prosecutor Office of Ukraine.[1] The stadium did not function as a sports facility for several years, a local radio market being established there instead.


Further plans


In 2010-11, the general director of Shakhtar Serhiy Palkin announced that the stadium would be rebuilt in its original architecture of 1936, however due to the UEFA Euro 2012 and later the 2014 war in Donbass that idea became abandoned.[3]
