Source-derived summary

Grigoris Lamprakis Stadium is a public multi-use stadium in Kallithea, Athens, Greece.

It is currently used mostly for football matches and is the home stadium of Athens Kallithea FC.

The stadium was built in 1970 and currently has a seating capacity of 6,300.

Name and nickname

The stadium is named after the Greek socialist, politician and peace activist Grigoris Lambrakis.

It is commonly referred to by its nickname "El Paso" (Greek: Ελ Πάσο), a reference to Clint Eastwood's 1965 Spaghetti Western film For a Few Dollars More (which had the Greek title Duel in El Paso), as the stadium was built on the site of a quarry and features a tall rock along the north side of the pitch, which was thought to be reminiscent of scenes from the film.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “athletic stadium in Kallithea, Athens, Greece, home of GS Kallithea” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 30, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q5609094. Authority coordinates are 37.960, 23.715. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1970 and 1965.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
