Dauphine, Former Olympic ski jumping hill in Saint-Nizier-du-Moucherotte, France
The Dauphine ski jumping hill features a K-point of 112 meters and stands as a concrete structure against the mountainous backdrop of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.
German architect Heini Klopfer designed this facility, which opened in 1966 and hosted the large hill competitions during the 1968 Winter Olympics.
The venue attracted 70,000 spectators during the Olympic Games, marking a significant moment for winter sports development in France.
Located at coordinates 45.165278, 5.635, the abandoned structure requires approximately €540,000 for dismantling or €3 million for complete reconstruction.
Vladimir Belousov established an Olympic record on this hill with a jump of 101.5 meters during the 1968 Winter Games.
