Guingamp - Metz

Stade du Roudourou got built in 1989 on the site of a ground that had previously been occupied by local club Stade Charles de Blois. Guingamp had until then played Stade Yves-Jaguin, but convinced the local municipality to built them a new home.

Stade du Roudourou officially opened on the 21st of January 1990 with a friendly match between Guingamp and Paris Saint-Germain.

The stadium could initially hold 12,000 spectators, but got further expanded in 1995 and 1997 following the rise of the club to Ligue 1 and qualification for European football.

Stade du Roudourou received a last small refurbishment in 2008. It subsequently hosted a home match of the France national team versus the Faroe Islands.

Getting there

Stade du Roudourou is located in the north-west of the small city of Guingamp at about a kilometre of its city centre. The walk takes no more than 15 minutes.

The train station lies on the other side of the city centre. It takes close to half an hour to walk from the station to the stadium, or you can take bus 2 or 3. Buses run infrequently on the weekend though.

Guingamp has a frequent direct train service with Rennes and there are furthermore a few daily direct trains that run from Paris.
