Top 10 beautiful stadiums in europe

I was at first going to list the national stadiums for pretty much everywhere in Europe, but I quickly realised that some of them *cough* Lithuania *cough* didn’t have a stadium worth the mention and even getting decent pictures of the others was more difficult than I imagined.

Let's get started.

1. Philip II Arena

 The first of the real minnow countries to feature as of yet. Macedonia's national stadium may only hold 33,000 but that doesn't make it any less stunning. They might not have the most successful national team, but there is no doubt the Philip II Arena is worthy of its place in this article.

2. Stadio Giuseppe Meazza / San Siro

 One of the most famous stadiums in all of Europe, and most unique, the San Siro as it is more commonly known is home to both giants of Milan. Both Inter and A.C. are going through a tough time at the moment but there 80,000 seater stadium will never stop being impressive.

3. Juventus Stadium

 Opened only four years ago, Juventus' new stadium may be small compared to others we have already seen (41,000) but what it lacks in size it makes up for in appearance. You should hope so too after it cost €120 million to build.

4 . Olympic Stadium / Spiros Louis

Athens' Olympic Stadium holds 70,000 and is home to local side AEK Athens.Italy

5 .Wesfalenstadion / Signal Iduna Park

Famous for the fans within it, Dortmund's home may not be as colourful as rivals Bayern's stadium but the atmospehere the fans create is second to none. Their 'yellow wall' of fans is famous for the array of images they have created and the noise they make. With a max capacity of 80,000, you can imagine how loud it must be.Greece

 6.Allianza Arena

 Seems only fair that one of Europe's best clubs has one of its best stadiums as its home too. The Allianz Arena is a marvel in itself, holding up to 75,000 people, the home of the German champions is just as famous for its ability to light up as it is for the football played inside.

7 .Olympiastadion

 

Although the German national team don't have a national stadium to play in, Hertha Berlin's home plays host to the German Cup final each year. This amazing Olympic Stadium can hold up to 75,000 people.

8.Stade Vélodrome

Home to Ligue 1 side Olmpique de Marseille, after the latest of many renovations throughout its history in 2014, the Stade Velodrome now boasts a large maximum capacity of its own, able to hold 67,000.Germany

9. Stade de France

France's home of both rugby and football, the Stade de France is Europe's sixth largest stadium, holding up to 81,000 people

10. Ernst Happel Stadion

It's Austria's largest stadium with a capacity of 51,000. Located in Vienna, it is the home of the Austrian National team as well as local side Rapid Vienna, but only for a short period of time
