Estadio Centenario — Montevideo (1930)
First ever World Cup Final in 1930. Built for the tournament. The birthplace of the World Cup.
Built specifically for the first ever World Cup in 1930 and named in honour of Uruguay's centenary of independence, the Centenario hosted the inaugural final between Uruguay and Argentina (4-2). Its "Tower of Homage" observation feature and 93,000 temporary capacity made it the most ambitious stadium construction in South American history at the time, costing over $1 million in 1930 dollars — more than any other stadium built that decade in the region.
