Why Visit Olympiastadion Berlin?

Historic Olympic Stadium

Olympiastadion Berlin stands as a landmark of sporting history, built for the 1936 Summer Olympics. Visitors can explore the stadium’s grand architecture and learn about the major events it has hosted since, including the 2006 FIFA World Cup final and the UEFA Euro 2024 final. Its mix of preserved 1930s design and modern renovation offers a rare look at both the past and present of international sport.

The Bell Tower Panoramic Viewpoint

Rising 77 metres above the grounds, the Bell Tower offers sweeping views over the stadium, the wider Olympiapark and the Berlin skyline. Badly damaged in the Second World War, it was rebuilt in the early 1960s to its original design. For visitors and photographers alike, it’s one of the best vantage points in the city.

Maifeld and Waldbühne Amphitheatre

The Maifeld, an expansive lawn once used for mass gymnastics displays, could historically hold up to 250,000 people. Next to it, the Waldbühne amphitheatre seats around 25,000 and still hosts concerts and cultural events today. Together, they give visitors a sense of the Olympiapark beyond the stadium itself.
