More about Toumba Stadium

Toumba Stadium is a football stadium in Thessaloniki, Greece. It is property of P.A.O.K..HistoryThe construction started in 1958 and completed in 1959. Patrons on the project were the Ministry of Culture and Sport (Greece) which offered the amount of 1,100,000 drachmas, while the Hellenic National Defence General Staff owned the space and contributed decisively to expropriate it for the stadium.The then defense minister Georgios Themelis vouched for the expropriation of the area of Toumba Stadium during the Konstantinos Karamanlis government in 1958. The old stadium of PAOK in Fountain Square downtown was expropriated for the construction of the Theological School of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. The architect of the project was Minas Trempelas and the engineer was Antonis Triglianos. Important for its construction was the contribution of the fans, who were invited twice to assist financially through the "Special Fund for the Construction of the New Stadium of PAOK", while some friends of PAOK worked personally during the process of the construction. It was finished on 6 September 1959 as the club's prime sporting venue and served as the home ground for the club's football team, which was participating in the then HFF Panhellenic Championship until today, for the needs of the Superleague Greece, the Greek Football Cup and the European Cups (UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League).
