San Mamés Estadio
San Mamés Stadium also known as La Catedral, was a football stadium in Bilbao, Biscay, Spain. The stadium was the home of Athletic Bilbao, known as Los Leones de San Mamés–Bilboko lehoiak (The Lions of San Mamés). They are known as Los Leones because their stadium was built near a church called San Mamés (Saint Mammes).
Mammes was an early Christian, born in A.D. 259, who was thrown to the lions by the Romans.
The club’s new stadium, of the same name, was inaugurated on 16 September 2013
