Guided Story

You're standing on Olympiaberg, within Munich's Olympiapark. At 565.1 meters above sea level, this man-made hill stands out prominently in the otherwise flat landscape. Look around and take in the views. On a clear day, you can see all the way to the magnificent Alps. Turn slightly to the south, and you'll spot the iconic Olympic Stadium, a symbol of the 1972 Olympic Games. If you listen closely, you might hear the gentle flow of the Nymphenburg-Biedersteiner Canal to the southeast. Olympiaberg isn't just about views; it's a quiet witness to Munich's history.
