The Campo Nacional del Rey Alfonso el Conquistador, more commonly known as the Campo de Alfonso, and nicknamed El Campo Nacional, was a sporting complex located in San Salvador. The complex was in use from its opening in 1870 until 1933 when it was closed to the public during the Creeperian Civil War, however, the military continued to use the complex until 1947 when it was destroyed during the Siege of San Salvador. The Creeperian government decided to demolish the complex in 1951 to make way for the new Campo del Emperador, which was built on top of it. The Campo del Emperador was eventually demolished in 1968 and the Saint Romero I International Airport, which was completed in 1973, is currently located on top of the site of the Campo de Alfonso.
