Milestones in Tynecastle's history
- Hearts moved to its current site in 1886, and a friendly against Bolton Wanderers inaugurated the new ground in April that year.
- The first international match at the ground was played in 1892, when Scotland beat Wales 6–1. Only 1,200 spectators came, as a snowstorm led many to believe the match would be postponed.
- In 1895, Tynecastle hosted a "World Championship" match between English champions Sunderland and Scottish champions Hearts.
- The Main Stand was built in 1914, designed by stadium architect Archibald Leitch.
- The attendance record was set in 1932: 53,396 spectators at a cup match against Rangers.
- In 1954, Tynecastle became the first stadium in Scotland to be built entirely of concrete, and floodlights were installed in 1957.
- In 1994, the west and north sides of the ground were demolished. The Wheatfield Stand was built that year, followed by the Roseburn Stand the next year.
Over the years, Hearts considered leaving Tynecastle. Options included moving to Murrayfield Stadium and to new sites in Millerhill and Hermiston. None of the proposals came to fruition, and the club renovated its existing stadium, which remains its home to this day.
