Source-derived summary

Child Hero Manuel Bonilla Municipal Sports Complex (Spanish: Complejo Deportivo Municipal Niño Héroe Manuel Bonilla), also known as the Municipal Stadium of Miraflores (Spanish: Estadio Municipal de Miraflores) is a sports complex in Miraflores District, Lima, Peru. It is named after Manuel Bonilla Elhart, a child soldier and war hero of the Peruvian Army who was killed in action during the War of the Pacific.

History

The stadium was inaugurated on October 28, 1995. In 2010, it was visited by Evo Morales, then president of Bolivia. It was subsequently remodelled in 2012, with said works taking place from August to October. Remodellation works again took place in 2022, but were suspended in 2023 after local complaints.

On February 24, 2011, the Club Universitario de Deportes's female volleyball team was disqualified after a violent incident took place in the stadium's tribune, caused by a supporter of the club.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “sports centre in Peru” 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 Q5779882. Authority coordinates are -12.110, -77.053. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1995, 2010, 2012 and 2022.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. 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.
