The stadium's name pays homage to the Virgin of El Cisne, whose sanctuary in the town of El Cisne is a major pilgrimage site in southern Ecuador.
The venue is known for its high-altitude conditions, which can influence ball trajectory and player stamina during professional matches.
Construction and expansion of the stadium were essential for accommodating the increased demand when L.D.U. Loja competed in the national first division.
The stadium's design incorporates an integrated synthetic track, allowing it to host both football matches and regional track and field competitions.
