The Olympiastützpunkt Bayern was founded in 1989 under the ownership of Olympiapark München GmbH. It is one of 18 German Olympic training centres and, with over 900 supported national squad athletes, the largest of them. Its headquarters has been housed directly beneath the main grandstand of the Munich Olympic Stadium since its founding.
The center brings together athletic training with school education through partnerships with four Elite Sports Schools across Bavaria. Athletes pursue both their sports careers and academic studies in one place.
The center sits right next to the Olympic Stadium and is easily accessible by public transportation. Visitors should plan ahead since access to the facility is limited to specific times for the general public.
The center operates regional facilities throughout Bavaria, including specialized winter sports centers in Oberstdorf, Füssen, and Garmisch-Partenkirchen. This network allows athletes to train at multiple locations tailored to different sports needs.
