About

The Léon-Bollée Stadium was a football stadium in the city of Le Mans. The professional football club of Le Mans FC played there until January 2011 before the opening of the new stadium of the city of Le Mans, the MMArena on January 29, 2011 (renamed the Marie Martita stadium on July 27, 2022). This chamber could accommodate 17,801 spectators.

It was named after a mancelle personality: Léon Bollée, pioneer of 19th-century automobile construction. Some of the former stadium stands were demolished following the construction of the MMArena at the end of February 2012. The part of the stadium still in use is now called Stade Beaulieu.
