About
The Yankel Rosenthal Stadium (Spanish: Estadio Yankel Rosenthal) is a multi-purpose use stadium in San Pedro Sula, Honduras. Renovations were completed in 2009, and it will now be used primarily for football matches.
It is the home stadium of San Pedro Sula-based Marathón, the second oldest team in the nation, founded November 25, 1925. The stadium has a capacity of 5,500 spectators. The project, which was scheduled to be finalized in its entirety by 2007, was rescheduled to 2009 due to financial issues.
The stadium is named after Marathón's current president and part owner Yankel Rosenthal, who started building the stadium, making Marathón the first Honduran football club to own its own stadium.
