Location

The stadium is located in "Lagator" urban neighborhood, hence the name. With Lagator Hall (indoor arena) and other sports venues located in close proximity, it comprises the main sports center of Loznica.

History

The original stadium was built following the end of World War II.[2] In 1989, the construction of a new main stand on the west side began. Most of the work was completed the following year, but the grandstand and its equipment were fully finished by 1996. In the period from 1994 to 1997, a new, completely roofed, eastern stand was built. Thanks to the redevelopment, the stadium hosted meetings of national youth teams.

In December 2020, the Government of Serbia accepted the 30.62 million euros bid by Termomont, Teming Electrotechnology, MPP Jedinstvo, Geourb and other companies to build a new stadium.[1] At the beginning of 2021, the old stadium was completely demolished (the last league match took place on 28 November 2020).[3]
