Bežigrad Stadium
Bežigrad Stadium, also known as Bežigrad Central Stadium , is a multi-purpose stadium in Ljubljana, the capital city of Slovenia. It is the oldest stadium in Ljubljana. The stadium has been closed since 2008. Construction of Bežigrad Stadium for the Roman Catholic youth sport association Orel began in 1925. It was designed by the architect Jože Plečnik. It takes its name from the Bežigrad district in Ljubljana, where it is located.

The newly established club, NK Bežigrad, played at the stadium between 2005 and 2007.
