History

The building of the stadium started in 1928, when the mayor of Viljandi was August Maramaa. Because of the downturn in economy, the building was not completed before World War II.

Previous renovation before 2009 was done in the beginning of the 1980s. After that reconstruction, the stadium could hold up to 2,506 people.
