The St. Jakob Stadium was a football stadium in Basel, Switzerland and the former home of Swiss club FC Basel. It was built in view of the 1954 FIFA World Cup,[1] and as well as serving as a club stadium, it hosted several important matches, including some FIFA World Cup matches in 1954 and four European Cup Winners' Cup finals.
After closing in 1998, St. Jakob-Park was built in its place. It was nicknamed "Joggeli"[2] (a diminutive of "Jakob" in the local dialect) by Basel supporters.[3]
