The Stadio delle Alpi is a football and athletics stadium in Turin, Italy, and was the home of both Juventus and Torino between 1990 and 2006. In English the name means “Stadium of the Alps”, a reference to the nearby mountain range. Currently, the stadium is disused, with both football clubs playing their home fixtures at the rebuilt Stadio Olimpico until the fate of the delle Alpi is decided.Designed by architect Studio Hutter, the delle Alpi was originally built in 1990 to host matches for the 1990 World Cup, as a replacement for the ageing Stadio Comunale, the then name of today’s Stadio Olimpico. The stadium’s original capacity was 69,041 fans, however due to FIFA rules regarding the segregation of home and away supporters, the actual capacity is reduced to 67,229.
