About Notre Dame Stadium

Notre Dame Stadium opened in 1930 and is known as the House That Rockne Built. It seats 77,622, and it looks north to the Word of Life mural on Hesburgh Library, the image fans call Touchdown Jesus. The public way in outside of a game is the Bob Hinton Tunnel Experience, a self-guided walk down the team tunnel to the north end zone for photos, with staff along the route to answer questions. Three buildings added in the Campus Crossroads project now stand on the west, south and east sides.
