München va reprezenta Germania în cursa pentru organizarea JO

Munich has been selected to represent Germany in the bid for the Summer Olympics, targeting the editions in 2036, 2040, or 2044. This decision was made by the German Olympic Sports Confederation after Berlin withdrew from the competition. Munich's proposal includes hosting events primarily in Bavaria, with football matches in Stuttgart and sailing events in Kiel. The city has previous experience from hosting the 1972 Summer Olympics. German Sports Minister Ronald Rauhe expressed a preference for the 2040 edition, coinciding with the 50th anniversary of German reunification. The next step involves determining which edition Germany will officially bid for.
