Overview

Stamford Bridge Stadium in South-West London has been Chelsea FC’s stadium since 1905. For those wishing to explore the legendary Stamford Bridge, there are a few great ways to visit.

Chelsea FC has won several Premier Leagues, UEFA Champions Leagues, and FA Cups in the past few decades.
