The club's first ground was the ''[[Campo da Rainha]]'' (Queen's Field), inaugurated in 1906 with an [[exhibition game]] against Boavista. The site was located near the residence of Monteiro da Costa and was the property of the city's horticultural society. Aided by his father, a horticultor by profession, Monteiro da Costa rented a portion (30 by 50 meters) of uncultivated terrain to create the first dedicated [[football pitch]] in the country. Later that year, the society's [[vivaria]] were transferred to another location, allowing Porto to increase the pitch area to match the sport's official dimensions.{{sfn|Tovar|2011|pp=11–13}} The ground had capacity for 600 people, including a VIP tribune, and possessed a [[changing room]] equipped with showers and sinks, a bar and a gym. The first match between Porto and a foreign team took place at the ''Campo da Raínha'', on 15 December 1907, when the hosts played Spanish side Real Fortuna.<ref>{{cite web|title=Campo da Raínha|url=http://www.fcporto.pt/pt/clube/estadio-do-dragao/Pages/campo-da-rainha.aspx#ancora_topo|publisher=FC Porto|access-date=25 April 2014|language=pt}}</ref>

By 1911, the ''Campo da Raínha'' was becoming too small for the rapidly growing attendances. After being notified about the sale of the ground for construction of a factory, the club searched for a new ground and rented a terrain near the ''Constituição'' street for an annual fee of 350[[Escudo|$]]00.{{sfn|Tovar|2011|p=13}} The ''[[Campo da Constituição]]'' (Constitution Field) was opened in January 1913 with a match against [[Oporto Cricket and Lawn Tennis Club]] and hosted Porto's home matches for the regional championship. Eventually, the larger capacity of this ground also became insufficient for the ever-increasing crowds attending the games, particularly against high-profile opponents.<ref>{{cite web|title=Campo da Constituição|url=http://www.fcporto.pt/pt/clube/estadio-do-dragao/Pages/campo-da-constituicao.aspx#ancora_topo|publisher=FC Porto|access-date=25 April 2014|language=pt}}</ref> On several occasions, between the 1920s and 1940s, Porto played host to matches at the ''Campo do Ameal'' (Ameal Field) or the ''Estádio do Lima'' (Lima Stadium), home of local rivals Sport Progresso and [[Académico F.C.|Académico]], respectively.<ref>{{cite web|title=Campo do Ameal|url=http://www.fcporto.pt/pt/clube/estadio-do-dragao/Pages/campo-do-ameal.aspx#ancora_topo|publisher=FC Porto|access-date=25 April 2014|language=pt}}</ref> It was in the latter ground that the club achieved their most important victory at the time, as they beat English champions Arsenal 3–2 in a friendly match on 7 May 1948.{{sfn|Bandeira|2012|p=22}}<ref>{{cite web|title=Estádio do Lima|url=http://www.fcporto.pt/pt/clube/estadio-do-dragao/Pages/estadio-do-lima.aspx#ancora_topo|publisher=FC Porto|access-date=25 April 2014|language=pt}}</ref>

In 1933, Porto approved a plan to build a new stadium to accommodate and meet the demands of larger attendances, but the project only moved forward with the purchase of {{convert|48000|sqm|acre}} of land in the eastern side of the city in 1947.{{sfn|Tovar|2011|pp=13–14}} Designed by Portuguese architects Oldemiro Carneiro and Aires de Sá,<ref>{{cite web|title=Estádio das Antas|url=http://www.fcporto.pt/pt/clube/estadio-do-dragao/Pages/estadio-das-antas.aspx#ancora_topo|publisher=FC Porto|access-date=26 April 2014|language=pt}}</ref> the construction of the ''Estádio do Futebol Clube do Porto''&nbsp;– better known as ''[[Estádio das Antas]]'' (Antas Stadium) for the neighbourhood where it was built&nbsp;– began in January 1950, one month after the first stone was symbolically laid. Two years later, on 28 May 1952, the stadium was inaugurated with a ceremony, featuring the presence of the [[President of Portugal|President of the Republic]] [[Francisco Craveiro Lopes]],{{sfn|Tovar|2011|pp=13–14}} and a match against Benfica, which Porto lost 2–8.{{sfn|Bandeira|2012|p=159}} The stadium's initial layout had an open east sector (Marathon Door), which was closed in 1976 with the construction of a two-tier stand that raised the capacity to 70,000.{{sfn|Bandeira|2012|p=122}} In 1986, works to lower the pitch and build an additional tier in the place of the athletics and cycling track were concluded, setting the capacity to a new maximum of 95,000. As stadium safety regulations became stricter during the following decade, the placing of individual seats brought the capacity of the Estádio das Antas down to 55,000 by 1997.<ref>{{cite web|title=Estádio das Antas|url=http://www.stadiumguide.com/antas/|publisher=The Stadium Guide|access-date=26 April 2014}}</ref>

The awarding of the [[UEFA Euro 2004]] hosting rights to Portugal in 1999 was the perfect opportunity for Porto to move into a more modern, functional and comfortable stadium, in line with the demands of high-level international football. The club decided to build an entirely new ground and chose a site located a few hundreds of meters southeast of the Estádio das Antas. The project was commissioned to Portuguese architect Manuel Salgado,<ref name="porto_dragao">{{cite web|title=Estádio do Dragão|url=http://www.fcporto.pt/pt/clube/estadio-do-dragao/Pages/historia.aspx|publisher=FC Porto|access-date=26 April 2014|language=pt}}</ref> and construction took two years to complete at a cost of [[Euro|€]]98 million. Baptised ''[[Estádio do Dragão]]'' (Dragon Stadium) by president Pinto da Costa, for the mythological creature placed atop the club's crest, it was officially inaugurated on 16 November 2003 with a match against Barcelona. Porto won 2–0 in front of a record 52,000 spectators, which also witnessed the professional debut of [[Lionel Messi]]. In June 2004, the venue hosted the opening ceremony and match of the UEFA Euro 2004, and four other tournament matches.<ref>{{cite web|title=Estádio do Dragão|url=http://www.stadiumguide.com/dragao/|publisher=The Stadium Guide|access-date=26 April 2014}}</ref> The highest attendance in an official match was registered on 21 April 2004, when 50,818 people saw Porto draw Deportivo La Coruña without goals, for the first leg of the 2003–04 UEFA Champions League semi-finals.{{sfn|Bandeira|2012|p=41}} For safety reasons, its current capacity is limited to 50,431.<ref name="porto_dragao"/>
