Zimní stadion Prostějov

Zimní stadion Prostějov presents a specific silhouette against the sky. Unlike the open-air pitches common in the region, this is a place where the weather does not dictate the game; the roof closed in 1976 meant the ice surface remained consistent year-round, allowing LHK Jestřábi Prostějov to play out their schedule without interruption. The building stands at U Stadionu 4452, a quiet corner of the town.

Walk into the stands and the view is dominated by the seating arrangement, which was refreshed in 2022 with new plastic chairs in yellow and red. The atmosphere inside is contained, the acoustics improved during a 1996 renovation that also updated the locker rooms. The venue has changed its name over the years, once operating as HŽP Aréna Prostějov after a sponsorship deal, but the structure remains the central point for local sport.

While the main tenants are the ice hockey team, the space occasionally hosts other events, including concerts, proving its utility beyond the league fixtures. The capacity sits somewhere between 4,600 and 5,000, depending on whether standing areas are counted, but the specific figure matters less than the proximity of the crowd to the glass. The arena has hosted international competition, such as the IIHF Continental Cup in 2001, but for most of its history it has served as a local hub.
