Spain and England Set for Historic Euro 2024 Final at Berlin's Olympiastadion

The match will be held in a stadium with a complex legacy, from Nazi propaganda to symbols of post-war reconciliation.

  • Berlin's Olympiastadion was built for the 1936 Olympics under Adolf Hitler's direction.
  • The stadium has witnessed significant historical events, including Jesse Owens' four gold medals.
  • Post-WWII, the site became a symbol of Germany's democratic rebirth and hosted multiple World Cups.
  • Modern Germany ensures the stadium's Nazi past is not forgotten, with historical information displayed prominently.
  • The Euro 2024 final features two multicultural teams, reflecting a stark contrast to the stadium's origins.
