Estadio José Nehin, popularly known as El Serpentario (the serpentarium), is a football football located in the city of San Juan in the homonymous province of Argentina. It is owned and operated by Club Sportivo Desamparados, and has a capacity of 18,000 spectators.
Overview
The stadium was named after José Nehin, footballer of Sportivo Desamaparados between 1920 and 1932. Nehin also played for the Argentina national team at the 1934 FIFA World Cup. He is the only San Juan-born footballer to have played in a World Cup.
The stadium was inaugurated on 5 June 1960. The origin of its nickname, serpentarium, is related to Desamparados' nickname, Víbora (snake).
