Constantin Jude Sports Hall (Romanian: Sala Sporturilor „Constantin Jude”) is an indoor arena in Timișoara, formerly known as Olimpia Hall (Romanian: Sala Olimpia). It was designed by architect Sorin Gavra in 1968.[1] It is used as a base for local basketball, handball, volleyball and futsal teams.[1] Initially, its seating capacity was 2,200, but after a rehabilitation in 2011 the capacity was reduced to 1,400 seats by mounting individual chairs.[2]
