Source-derived summary

The Stade Georges Lefèvre Training Center (French: Centre d'entraînement du Stade Georges Lefèvre), commonly known as the Camp des Loges, is a sports facility in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France. Since October 2024, it has served as the training facility of rugby union club Stade Français; from July 1970 to June 2023, football club Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) was the tenant.

The current version of the Camp des Loges opened in November 2008, and is the second to have been built on the site, with the first opening its doors in June 1904. The main stadium of the Camp des Loges, the Stade Georges Lefèvre, was also operated by PSG.

Paris Saint-Germain left the Camp des Loges for the newly built Campus PSG in 2023. The club's youth academy and female team also moved to the new site in 2024. The Camp des Loges continues to be the headquarters of the Association Paris Saint-Germain.

History

The Stade Georges Lefèvre Training Center was inaugurated on 21 June 1904, under the name of Stade des Loges, to coincide with the foundation of now-dissolved French football club Stade Saint-Germain that same year. It was nicknamed Camp des Loges after the nearby military base of the same name reserved for soldiers of the French Army.

In 1945, following the death of Stade Saint-Germain player Georges Lefèvre during World War II in 1940, the Stade des Loges changed its name to Stade Georges Lefèvre in his honor. Its main football stadium, the homonymously called Stade Georges Lefèvre, has a seating capacity of 2,164 spectators distributed over three stands, but can hold more people standing up.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Camp des Loges” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Camp, Loges and Training provides the most credible route into that argument.

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 Q2935297. Authority coordinates are 48.916, 2.080. None of the 2 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2024, 1970, 2023 and 2008.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. 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.
