Estádio de Laranjeiras (English: Laranjeiras Stadium), officially named Estádio Manoel Schwartz is a historic football stadium in Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil. The stadium currently holds 6,000 spectators but, due to its reduced capacity and a lack of safety permits, has not hosted professional football matches since 2003. It was built in 1905 and is one of the oldest stadiums in Brazil. The stadium is owned by Fluminense Football Club.
