Stade Michel-d'Ornano

Stade Michel d'Ornano is home to the club "Stade Malherbe de Caen". It was built following the good results of the club which played at Stade Venoix, which had become too small and no longer met the standards of major competitions.

It is partially covered with a semi-transparent roof; the lack of sunlight means the pitch needs to be changed approximately every 6 years.

In July 2024, the main stand displays a "MALHERBE" mural in the club's colours, red and blue, created by artist Seb Toussaint, a fan of the club since his earliest age.
