Sportmuseum Leipzig, Sports museum in Leipzig, Germany
The Sportmuseum Leipzig houses over 90,000 objects, making it one of the largest collections of sports history artifacts in Germany.
Founded in 1977, the museum operated a permanent exhibition until 1991, when it transformed into a collection and documentation center near Zentralstadion.
The museum presents artifacts from German gymnastics festivals since 1863, regional sports movements, and extensive collections from East German athletic history.
Visitors can access the library and collections by appointment on Tuesdays from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, while future exhibitions are planned at the former swimming stadium.
The museum maintains historical flags, equipment, clothing, medals, certificates, photographs, and audiovisual records documenting Leipzig's sports development through different eras.
