The stadium was originally built to host the baseball tournament at the 1992 Summer Olympics and designed by Spanish architect Mario Correa. It was later reconverted to a football stadium in 1999.
It is part of a municipal sports complex known as Feixa Llarga - which includes other facilities such as a rugby field and a sports center - and that is why the Municipal Stadium is sometimes referred to as Feixa Llarga. However, the Estadi Municipal de L'Hospitalet should not be confused with the Camp Municipal de la Feixa Llarga, headquarters of the UD Unificación Bellvitge, which is located a few meters away, within the same sports complex.
