Roger Taillibert's 1967–72 rebuild hung the stands on suspended concrete and gave the ground formidable acoustics — and it was the first stadium on the continent lit from its own rooftop.
What to look for
- The four tribunes: Auteuil, Paris, Borelli and Boulogne
- Lighting built into the roofline — a European first when the stadium reopened in 1972
- Stade Jean-Bouin directly across the road
In Paris's 16th arrondissement; the ground holds 47,929, so expect crowds at kickoff on PSG matchdays.
