About St. Jakob-Park
St. Jakob-Park is a landmark. Location: Basel, Basel-Stadt.
St. Jakob-Park (Swiss Standard German: [zaŋkt ˈjaːkɔb ˌpark] ) is a Swiss sports stadium in Basel. It is the largest football venue in Switzerland and home to FC Basel. "Joggeli", as the venue is nicknamed by the locals, was originally built with a capacity of 33,433 seats. The capacity was increased to 42,500 for Euro 2008, which was hosted by Austria and Switzerland. After the tournament, a number of seats were removed, thus creating more space between them.
