History
In 1934, the Municipality of Murska Sobota contacted the architect Franc Novak and asked him to make plans for the stadium. The first pitch was completed by 1936. The stadium was officially opened on 28 June 1936, and became the home ground of the local football team SK Mura. Initially, the stadium was called Stadion Viteškega Kralja Aleksandra I. Zedinitelja, in honour of Alexander I of Yugoslavia. The cost of building the stadium was 160,000 Yugoslav dinar.

In the early 1980s, the stadium was expanded with the construction of a new main stand. A decade later, in 1994, two additional stands were built, located in the northern and southern parts of the stadium. In 2001, all stands were covered with a roof.

In 2017, the locker rooms underwent a complete reconstruction in accordance with UEFA standards. In 2019, Fazanerija received floodlights. In 2019 and 2020, the stadium underwent further renovations and adjustments, including new seats, renovation of the stand for away fans, renovation of the roof, renovation of the camera tower and the new press center.
