Rohonci út

Stadion Rohonci Út (Hungarian: Rohonci úti stadion) was a multi-purpose stadium in Szombathely, Hungary.[1] It was home to Szombathelyi Haladás. The stadium was able to hold 12,500 people and was built in 1923. It hosted the hammer throw events for the IAAF World Athletics Final as the Stade Louis II in Monaco is too small.

This article is about the stadium demolished in 2016. For the new stadium it replaced, see Haladás Sportkomplexum.
