In October 2024, Soldier Field turned 100 years old. It opened in 1924, and has been the Chicago Bears' stadium since 1971.
Soldier is the NFL's oldest stadium by a large margin. Many NFL organizations have pursued new venues in the past decade. Of the NFL's 30 stadiums, 21 were built in the past 25 years.
Let's take a look at each NFL stadium, from oldest to newest.

Since Soldier Field opened, it has been renovated a number of times -- most recently in 2003, which caused it to be delisted as a National Historic Landmark.
