About Stadio Carlo Castellani#

Stadio Carlo Castellani is a football stadium in Empoli, Tuscany, named for local player Carlo Castellani. It was opened in the mid-1960s and serves as the town’s principal football venue.

The ground offers seating for roughly 16,000 spectators and is arranged with stands close to the pitch, giving an intimate matchday atmosphere for Empoli F.C. fixtures. Facilities reflect a typical small-to-medium Italian club stadium with covered main stands and open curva ends.

The stadium was built to serve local football following Empoli’s rise in regional competition and was later adapted as the club progressed through the Italian league system. It remains the club’s primary home venue.

Located in the town of Empoli in the province of Florence, the stadium sits within the urban area and is a short distance from Empoli railway station and local road links to Florence and other parts of Tuscany.

  • Use Empoli's train station as your arrival point and follow local signage or match‑day shuttle information-the stadium is commonly reached on foot or by short local bus from the station, and public transport is the easiest way to avoid matchday parking congestion.
