The Terrain Pierre-Rolland (Pierre-Rolland Field) is the home ballpark of the Rouen Huskies of France's Division Elite. It is located with the "Complexe Sportif Saint-Exupéry", which also includes soccer and basketball fields, an indoor arena and other sporting installations. The field is located close to the Seine River and only a few hundred meters from Rouen's medieval downtown.

The field includes an infield of artificial turf and an outfield of natural grass; the park is lined on both sides by mature trees in which foul balls go to die. The main Paris-to-Rouen railroad tracks also run along the third base foul line, just beyond the woods, with trains also exposing themselves to stray foul balls. The park includes a small grandstand seating around 200. A clubhouse is under construction as of 2014, as the city of Rouen is investing in the facility in recognition of the Huskies' recent success. There are currently only lights that cover the backstop area, so night games are not possible.
