Significance

The Municipal Stadium in Wrocław was the largest sports investment in the city's history and one of four Polish stadiums built for UEFA Euro 2012 – the tournament co-hosted by Poland and Ukraine. Three group-stage matches of the tournament were played there, including one match featuring the Polish national team (16 June 2012). After the championship the facility became Wrocław's main entertainment and sports arena and the home stadium of the Śląsk Wrocław club, hosting league matches, concerts, and mass events. The final construction cost (approx. PLN 947 million) significantly exceeded the original estimates and the value of the first contract with the contractor (nearly PLN 730 million), which was the subject of disputes and subsequent financial settlements.

Every fact on this card comes from the sources below. Next to each source – which fields it supports.

Independence is counted the same way the gate that admits a record counts it: subdomains and titles from one publisher are a single voice, Wikipedia is zero. That is why the number is lower than the number of links. Three is the minimum.

A “wiki” mark means the value stands on Wikipedia alone. Our count of independent sources treats it as zero, so read such a place as less firmly documented than the rest of the card – that applies to an outcome row, a figure, a date and a status alike.
