The Stadium Ladhof is a stadium in Colmar, France particularly known for hosting the matches of Football Club of Colmar (known for a time as Colmar Stadium 77) until 1986. It is currently used by the Portuguese FC and FC Colmar Spaniards, two regional amateur clubs.

The stadium has a capacity of 1,500 seats, including 240 seats in the assises.

It is located on 2 Ladhof Street, Colmar. It should not be confused with Francs stadium or the Colmar Stadium, the other two main stadiums in the city.

History[edit]

The stadium was inaugurated on 21 September 1947. From that date, it hosts the home games of FC Colmar, becoming Colmar Stadium 77 in 1977. There will be played encounters of CFA in 1948–1949, of Division 3 soccer in 1978–1979, and Division 4 soccer in 1979–1980.

On 26 December 1964 FC Colmar played FC Sochauxin at Ladhof Stadium.

After the dissolution of Colmar Stadium 77 in 1986, the stadium was occupied by small amateur clubs in Colmar.
