Baden-Baden. Aujourd'hui, tout Munich a les yeux rivés sur Baden-Baden avec une grande impatience ! Même à l'Oktoberfest de Munich — comme nous l'ont confié de nombreux festivaliers ce matin — on attendait avec ferveur la décision de la DOSB ! LE MOMENT EST ARRIVÉ : Munich a gagné !!! Le résultat de la Confédération olympique des sports allemands (DOSB) vient d'être annoncé. La capitale bavaroise a tous les atouts en main et a convaincu la DOSB dans toutes les catégories requises lors du vote ! Munich et Kiel ont remporté la sélection pour représenter l'Allemagne dans la compétition internationale visant à accueillir l'une des prochaines éditions des Jeux olympiques — en 2036, 2040 ou 2044. Munich et Kiel avaient passé toute la matinée dans l'attente fébrile de cette décision. Aujourd'hui, à Baden-Baden, le président fédéral Frank-Walter Steinmeier s'est présenté devant des représentants de la ville et la presse, impatients de connaître le nom du candidat retenu pour accueillir l'une des futures éditions des Jeux olympiques. C'est le projet de Munich, pour l'Allemagne, qui l'a emporté ! Selon les plans actuels du Comité international olympique, la ville hôte des Jeux olympiques et paralympiques sera désignée en 2029.

Le Kurhaus de Baden-Baden affichait complet pour l'occasion ;

l'atmosphère était empreinte d'une vive attente alors que l'assistance guettait l'annonce du DOSB et écoutait les interviews.

Les Jeux olympiques ne se résument pas au sport ; pour chaque athlète, ils représentent des « moments pour l'éternité ». Quiconque s'est rendu à Munich en bus en 1972 et a vu, coincé dans les embouteillages, le porteur de la flamme olympique passer en courant, sait que cet instant reste à jamais gravé dans sa mémoire... et qu'il verra, pour la deuxième fois de sa vie, un porteur de flamme traverser Munich en courant !

Monaco di Baviera-Olimpiadi in Baviera

 Giochi Olimpici a Monaco? Ora le cose potrebbero davvero mettersi in moto! Forse Monaco porterà le Olimpiadi in Germania...

Mia san Candidato alle Olimpiadi!!! La decisione della Confederazione Sportiva Olimpica Tedesca (DOSB): evviva, il momento è finalmente arrivato! Monaco, insieme a Kiel, entra in gara per ospitare le Olimpiadi per conto della Germania

Olimpiadi in Baviera e nello Schleswig-Holstein – tra montagne e costa – con località che sono sinonimo di alta qualità e attrattiva internazionale (DEUTSCH, ENGLISH, FRANCAIS, ITALIANO)

Baden-Baden. Oggi tutta Monaco guarda a Baden-Baden con grande trepidazione! Anche all'Oktoberfest di Monaco – come abbiamo appreso questa mattina da molti visitatori – si attende con impazienza la decisione della DOSB! IL MOMENTO È ARRIVATO: Monaco ha vinto!!! È appena stato annunciato il verdetto della Confederazione Sportiva Olimpica Tedesca (DOSB). Il capoluogo bavarese offre tutto e ha convinto la DOSB in tutte le categorie richieste durante la votazione! Monaco e Kiel si sono aggiudicate la candidatura per rappresentare la Germania nella competizione internazionale volta a ospitare una delle prossime edizioni dei Giochi Olimpici: nel 2036, 2040 o 2044. Monaco e Kiel hanno trascorso l'intera mattinata in trepidante attesa della decisione. Oggi, a Baden-Baden, il Presidente federale Frank-Walter Steinmeier si è presentato davanti ai rappresentanti della città e alla stampa, in trepidante attesa, per annunciare la candidatura prescelta per ospitare una delle future edizioni dei Giochi Olimpici. A spuntarla è stato il progetto di Monaco per la Germania! Secondo gli attuali piani del Comitato Olimpico Internazionale, la sede dei Giochi Olimpici e Paralimpici verrà scelta nel 2029.

Il Kurhaus di Baden-Baden era gremito per l'occasione;

si respirava un'atmosfera di grande attesa mentre i presenti aspettavano l'annuncio del DOSB e ascoltavano le interviste. Tra gli ospiti in sala figuravano il Presidente federale Frank-Walter Steinmeier e il Ministro-Presidente della Baviera, Dr. Markus Söder — seduto accanto al sindaco di Monaco Dominik Krause — in attesa della decisione del comitato della Confederazione Olimpica Sportiva Tedesca (DOSB). Le Olimpiadi sono molto più che semplice sport; per ogni atleta, i Giochi Olimpici rappresentano "momenti per l'eternità". Chiunque si sia recato a Monaco in autobus nel 1972 e — bloccato nel traffico — abbia visto passare di corsa il tedoforo con la fiamma olimpica, sa che quel momento è rimasto impresso per sempre nella memoria... e che, la prossima volta, vedrà un tedoforo correre per le strade di Monaco per la seconda volta nella propria vita!

SEDE DELLA DECISIONE DEL DOSB: 
Il Kurhaus di Baden-Baden, in stile neoclassico, 

risalente al XIX secolo e progettato da Friedrich Weinbrenner, ospita – tra l'altro – il celebre casinò e il "Bellini" (bar e ristorante).

Munich for Olympics in Germany

Olympic Games in Munich? Things might actually get moving now! Perhaps Munich will bring the Olympics to Germany ...

Mia san Olympic bidder!!! Decision by the German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB): Hurrah, the moment has finally arrived! Munich, together with Kiel, enters the race to host the Olympics for Germany

Baden-Baden. All of Munich is looking toward Baden-Baden today with great anticipation! Even at the Munich Oktoberfest—as we learned from many festival-goers this morning—people are eagerly awaiting the DOSB's decision! THE MOMENT HAS ARRIVED: Munich has won!!! The result from the German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB) has just been announced. The Bavarian state capital offers everything and impressed the DOSB in all required categories during the vote! Munich and Kiel have won the bid to represent Germany in the international competition to host one of the upcoming Olympic Games—in 2036, 2040, or 2044. Munich and Kiel had spent the entire morning waiting anxiously for the decision. Today in Baden-Baden, Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier stood before the eagerly awaiting city representatives and the press to announce the candidate for hosting one of the future Olympic Games. Munich’s concept for Germany won the day! According to current plans by the International Olympic Committee, the host for the Olympic and Paralympic Games will be selected in 2029.

The Kurhaus in Baden-Baden was packed for the occasion; 

the atmosphere was one of eager anticipation as people awaited the DOSB’s announcement and listened to the interviews. Among the guests seated in the hall were Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier and Bavarian Minister-President Dr. Markus Söder—sitting alongside Munich Mayor Dominik Krause—as they awaited the decision from the German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB) committee. The Olympics are about more than just sport; for every athlete, the Olympic Games represent "moments for eternity." Anyone who traveled to Munich by bus in 1972 and—while stuck in traffic—watched the torchbearer carrying the Olympic flame run past knows that the moment is etched in their memory forever... and that, next time, they will see a torchbearer running through Munich for the second time in their life!

Olympic Host Bid: Kiel Joins Munich – Awaiting DOSB Decision

The cities of Munich and Kiel are joining forces for Munich’s bid to the German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB); tomorrow, Saturday, September 26, 2026, all eyes will be on Baden-Baden, where the decision is set to be made at the Kurhaus

 

Munich—one of the world's premier sports cities—and Kiel—"Kiel.Sailing.City"—are teaming up to support the Olympics, just as they did in 1972. According to the bid profile, the sailing competitions for the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Munich are slated to take place on the Kiel Fjord

"Kiel is a top destination for sailing, and Munich is one of the world's best sports cities," stated Bavarian Minister-President Dr. Markus Söder to the press (DEUTSCH, ENGLISH)

Munich. Tomorrow, all eyes will turn to Baden-Baden, where the German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB) will make the decision that Federal President Walter Steinmeier will then officially announce regarding the national bidders for the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Germany. The Olympics in Bavaria and Schleswig-Holstein—featuring both mountains and the coast—would be something special! (according to Dr. Markus Söder – see below). The state governments of Bavaria and Schleswig-Holstein are enthusiastically backing the nomination of Munich and Kiel as Olympic candidates. The sailing competitions for the Olympic and Paralympic Games hosted by Munich would take place in Kiel, on the Kiel Fjord in Schleswig-Holstein. To this end, the cities of Munich and Kiel are joining forces in Munich’s bid to the German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB). Munich’s goal is to be nominated as the German Olympic candidate for the years 2036, 2040, or 2044. The state premiers and the mayors of both cities expressed their enthusiasm to the press as follows:

Bavaria’s Minister-President Dr. Markus Söder:

“Greetings from both South and North—let’s bring the Olympics here! Munich and Kiel are a perfect match. The joint partnership from 1972 is coming back to life—South and North are joining forces. Both locations stand for high quality and international appeal. Kiel is a premier destination for sailing, and Munich is one of the world’s best cities for sports. It is the perfect ‘one-two pass’ for Germany’s Olympic bid. As the Free State, we are backing the Olympic bid with all our might, and we also wish to express our sincere thanks to Rostock—our fellow contender for the sailing events—for their equally strong proposal and the spirit of trust and cooperation. Now, our focus is entirely on the decision by the DOSB (German Olympic Sports Confederation): Munich and Kiel offer the best overall package for Games that will be a success on the international stage. We can provide the necessary infrastructure regarding sports venues and hotels; our proposal is compact and sustainable; we guarantee the necessary security; and both cities share an Olympic tradition. The Olympics in Bavaria and Schleswig-Holstein—featuring both mountains and the coast—now that would be something special!”

Munich Mayor Dominik Krause sees Kiel as a great partner in the North

"Munich and Kiel wrote Olympic history together in 1972; now we want to revitalize this successful collaboration. Kiel and Munich share a great deal: strong public support for sports, experience in hosting major events, a robust economy, and—above all—a living, sustainable Olympic legacy. In Kiel and Schleswig-Holstein, we have a fantastic partner in the North that perfectly complements Munich’s Olympic bid."

Schleswig-Holstein Minister-President Daniel Günther

“Munich and Kiel—a perfect match. The fact that Munich has chosen Kiel as its sailing venue is fantastic news for Schleswig-Holstein. Munich and Kiel made Olympic history together back in 1972, with the Games held in the south and the regattas taking place on the Kiel Fjord. We now want to build on that legacy: Munich has our full support in its bid to host the Olympic and Paralympic Games. We hope Munich wins the bid and want to bring the world’s biggest sporting event to Germany together—backed by a clear majority and strong momentum from the people of Munich and Kiel. We also have the backing of six sailing associations, representing 75 percent of all sailors in Germany; last Friday, they clearly declared their support for Kiel. After all, sailing is part of Kiel’s DNA. And with Kiel Week, we prove year after year that we are capable of hosting major world-class sporting events. If the Olympic and Paralympic Games come to Germany, Kiel must be part of them. We want the Olympic sailing competitions to take place where the sport is truly at home in Germany: in a world-class sailing area, at the national sailing training center, utilizing the infrastructure in Schilksee—and in a city that invites the world to sail here every year.”

Kiel’s Mayor Dr. Samet Yilmaz

"Munich and Kiel have already collaborated very successfully in the past, jointly organizing magnificent Olympic Games. Following the 1972 regattas, the president of the world sailing federation praised the event with the words: 'Do it like in Kiel.' We are eager to demonstrate that Kiel.Sailing.City is the international benchmark for outstanding sailing competition organization and that Kiel is the premier choice as the German venue for Olympic sailing."

 

Where DOSB members meet: the Kurhaus and Kurpark in Baden-Baden in summer.

Munich is bidding to the DOSB to become the German candidate city for hosting the Summer Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The plan is for the Olympic coastal sports events to take place in the Baltic Sea off the coast of Kiel. The city of Kiel enjoys a global reputation and, as the site of the Federal Sailing Training Center, serves as the hub for elite sailing in Germany. The Bavarian Sailing Association is also represented in Kiel through a joint high-performance training center for young talent.

Kiel was already part of the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich and boasts proven infrastructure, an Olympic tradition, and an outstanding sailing area that meets the requirements for all Olympic coastal sports. Kiel thus integrates perfectly into Munich’s bid concept, which focuses on sustainability, existing sports facilities, and an outstanding Olympic legacy.

Munich’s Olympic bid stands out thanks to its global appeal, sustainability, expertise, and strong public support

The goal is to host Games that serve as a major shared experience for the city and the entire country. In doing so, Munich has uniquely preserved and built upon the Olympic legacy of 1972.

The Olympic Park once again forms the heart of this compact and sustainable bid concept. Furthermore, Bavaria offers organizational strength, reliability, and experience gained from hosting numerous top-tier international sporting events. Added to this is Munich’s global appeal—characterized by sporting excellence, hospitality, the Bavarian way of life, and a unique blend of urban living, cultural landscapes, and nature.

Munich is also the first city in Olympic history to secure public backing for the Summer Games through a referendum: 66.4 percent voted "Yes" to the Olympics, with a record turnout of 42 percent for a referendum. Consequently, Munich possesses the greatest international potential to successfully secure the right for Germany to host the Olympic Games.
