The construction of the Camp Nou began in 1953 and was completed 4 years later. The first game was a friendly match between the local team and Legia, the representative of Poland. The game ended with the score 4: 2 in favor of the hosts. The name translated from Catalan means "new field". This name has become official since 2000.
