Background and history
The Estadio Janguito Malucelli in Curitiba, Brazil was built in 2007 and is the home of Brazilian club J. Malucelli FC. This extraordinary stadium has a capacity of 6000 making it the smallest stadium I have posted about in this series of blogs.
The club itself was founded in 1994 as Clube Malutrom and was renamed J. Malucelli FC in 2005. The club then changed name again in 2009 to Corinthians Paranaense but going back to J. Malucelli FC in 2012.
The stadium hosted the most famous team in the area Atletico Paranaense as their stadium was being refurbished for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. During this spell there was some adaptations to the stadium in order to increase the stadium capacity to 10,000.
Unique Factor
The Estadio Janguito Malucelli is often called the Ecoestadio which is testament to the uniqueness of the stadium. It is famous for being the first green stadium in Brazil. Football and ecology never walked side by side. The construction of modern stadiums is a major proof of this: in addition to spending millions, the leaders do not care about the assault on nature caused by buildings.
J.Malucelli Football decided to adapt simplicity and environmental awareness in the construction of this stadium in order to cause the least possible environmental impact. Everything is eco-friendly: the bleachers are dug in the ground, the wood came from reforestation area and the iron from disabled railway sleepers. The stadium was built without the use of concrete.
Unique rating - 10/10
The Estadio Janguito Malucelli needs to get a 10/10 uniqueness rating! What other stadium is built without the use of concrete and with only natural eco-friendly products. Please keep reading my posts as I continue to search the world for unique football stadiums.
