Deutsches Sport & Olympia Museum

In the location's words:

The German Sport & Olympia Museum is the cultural hotspot of German sport. An inspired place of movement and encounter in a prominent location, directly on the Rhine in an old customs hall dating from 1896. Here we offer an exciting journey through time on approximately 2,700 square meters through the history of sport from Greek antiquity to the present.

Around 2,000 selected objects and stimulating installations illuminate the many facets and varieties of our "most beautiful secondary matter", which has long since developed into a politically and socially highly relevant primary matter. Thus, grandiose victories and painful defeats, winners and losers - in short, the big and the small world of sports, but also with its risks and side effects are put into the picture. In addition, numerous active stations invite visitors to experience the pleasure and challenge of exercise in the flesh. And if you want more of the same, you are welcome to let off steam on the two highest and most beautiful play areas in the city on the roof of the building - or just enjoy the wonderful view.

Our extensive museum educational offer includes guided tours for school classes and other groups, the implementation of activity programs and team building measures or eventful children's birthday parties. The great location and the specific atmosphere also profile the house as an exposed event location, which gives events of all kinds a special setting and character. Our exclusive catering partner lemonpie takes care of the physical well-being on request.

Thus, the house presents itself as an experience museum for the whole family and for all occasions - for sports enthusiasts and those who want to become one. A dedicated team will be happy to welcome you and your guests at any time.
