The Olympiastadion (Olympic Stadium) is a sports stadium in Berlin. There have been two stadia on the site: the present facility, and one that was built for the aborted 1916 Summer Olympics. Both were designed by members of the same family, the first by Otto March and the second by his son Werner March.
The current Olympiastadion was originally built for the 1936 Summer Olympics in the southern part of the Reichssportfeld (today Olympiapark Berlin). During World War II, the area suffered little damage. After the war, the United Kingdom military occupation used the northern part of the Reichssportfeld as its headquarters until 1994.
Aside from its use as an Olympic stadium, the Olympiastadion has a strong footballing tradition. Historically, it is the ground of club Hertha BSC Berlin. It was also used for 3 matches in the 1974 FIFA World Cup. It hosted six matches, including the final, in the 2006 FIFA World Cup and was renovated for that reason. The German Cup final match is held each year at the Olympiastadion in Berlin.

Das Berliner Olympiastadion befindet sich im Ortsteil Westend im Bezirk Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf von Berlin. Es ist Teil des auf großen Sichtachsen aufgebauten Olympiageländes (ehemals Reichssportfeld), zu dem auch das Sportforum, Olympia-Hockeystadion, Reitstadion, Olympia-Schwimmstadion, Waldbühne, Maifeld und der Glockenturm und Langemarckhalle gehören.
Das Olympiastadion wurde von 1934 bis 1936 anlässlich der Olympischen Sommerspiele 1936 mit einem Fassungsvermögen von Zuschauern nach Plänen des Architekten Werner March erbaut. Zunächst planten die Organisatoren der Spiele 1936 in Deutschland, das bestehende Deutsche Stadion im Grunewald umzubauen. Dieses war 1913 auf dem Gelände der Rennbahn Grunewald anlässlich der für 1916 geplanten Olympischen Spiele errichtet worden. Wegen des Ersten Weltkrieges fanden die Olympischen Spiele 1916 nicht statt. Es war zu seiner Zeit eines der größten Stadien weltweit.
Entgegen der ursprünglichen Planung, das Deutsche Stadion für die Olympischen Spiele umzubauen, ordnete der damalige Reichskanzler Adolf Hitler wegen des zu erwartenden propagandistischen Effekts für das nationalsozialistische Deutschland im Oktober 1933 den Bau eines neuen Großstadions an. Formal orientiert sich das Stadion mit seinen klaren geometrischen Grundformen an antiken Sportstätten. Es ist zur Hälfte ein Erdstadion, das heißt, nur der Oberring befindet sich über Erdniveau, weswegen die Wirkung nicht so übermächtig ausfällt wie zum Beispiel bei der Kongresshalle in Nürnberg. Dadurch konnte die Bauzeit wesentlich verkürzt werden. Es wurde gemeinsam mit den Olympischen Sommerspielen 1936 am 1. August 1936 eröffnet.

Outside Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Germany
The Olympiastadion (German pronunciation: [oˈlʏmpi̯aˈʃtaːdi̯ɔn]; English: Olympic Stadium) is a sports stadium in Berlin, Germany. There have been two stadia on the site: one that was called the Deutsches Stadion, which was built for the aborted 1916 Summer Olympics, and the present-day facility. Both were designed by members of the same family, the first by Otto March and the second by his son Werner March. It is the second biggest stadium in Germany behind Signal Iduna Park and has been the home stadium of the Hertha Berlin football team since 1963.
The current Olympiastadion was originally built for the 1936 Summer Olympics in the southern part of the Reichssportfeld (today Olympiapark Berlin). During World War II, the area suffered little damage. After the war, the British military occupation used the northern part of the Reichssportfeld as its headquarters until 1949. From 1951 to 2005, the Olympischer Platz had a giant antenna transmitting for all the portable radios in Berlin.
Aside from its use as an Olympic stadium, the Olympiastadion has a strong footballing tradition. It was used for 3 matches in the 1974 FIFA World Cup. It hosted six matches, including the final, in the 2006 FIFA World Cup and was renovated for that reason. The German Cup final match is held each year at the Olympiastadion. The stadium sees use in other sports as well; at one point it held the world record for the attendance of a baseball game, thought to be over 110,000. In May 2013, UEFA announced that the Olympiastadion Berlin will host the 2015 UEFA Champions League Final.

WWII device found at Olympic stadium
1. Pan from bell tower to Media Centre
2. Police van and officer in secured area where World War II device was found
3. Various of evacuated journalists waiting outside media centre
4. Various of entrance to Media centre
5. Journalists playing soccer outside centre
6. Close-up of ball being kicked around
7. SOUNDBITE (German): Hans-Georg Felder, Stadium spokesman:
A bomb disposal expert arrived here and determined that the device was a 'flak' detonator from WWII. The expert told us that the detonator wasn't dangerous and would not have exploded. So there was no danger for the people who have worked here at the Media Centre.
8. People walking outside the media centre
STORYLINE:
The media centre next to the stadium set to host the World Cup final was evacuated on Friday when a World War II explosive was found on the
grounds.
A gardener at the Olympiastadion reported a suspicious device about 30 metres (98 feet) from the stadium, which will host the July 9 final.
The 7-centimetre (3-inch) fuse was said to be from a flak gun used by German soldiers in the defence of the city 61 years ago.
The centre was evacuated for about 1 1/2 hours while the fuse was removed, although a stadium spokesman said it had never posed a danger to those nearby.
The expert told us that the detonator wasn't dangerous and would not have exploded, said Hans-Georg Felder, stadium spokesman.
With the sun emerging during another unseasonably cold day in the German capital, journalists and officials staged impromptu games of soccer while they waited to return to work.
Felder said such finds were not unusual in Berlin, which suffered sustained bombardment from Soviet and Allied troops before the official surrender of German troops in May 1945.

The Berlin Prayer Journey - The Olympic Stadium - Burning Hearts Ministries
On my recent prayer journey to Berlin, Germany with Randal Martin, we felt led to go to the Olympic Stadium and pray that God would use that place for revival. We prayed that hundreds of thousands of Germans would come to Jesus in that place. It was a powerful time of prayer.

Places to see in ( Berlin - Germany ) Olympiastadion Berlin
For local football fans, Berlin’s Olympiastadion means just one thing – the home of the city’s leading Bundesliga club Hertha BSC, fondly dubbed the “Old Lady”. And when those fans get into position on the Ostkurve fan block terrace, they are ready for a roller-coaster of emotions – ninety minutes that can take them from the depths of despair to wild cheering and the joy of another match won. There is a very special atmosphere when 74,475 enthusiastic fans gather in the fully sold out stadium – but the legendary Ostkurve terrace is always reserved for the blue and white colours of the Hertha fans as they fire on their club.
In summer, Berlin’s Olympiastadion is transformed into an open-air stage for the some of the world’s top events. The many legendary bands and musicians playing here over the past years have included such names as the Rolling Stones, Madonna, Robbie Williams, Depeche Mode and Coldplay.
From 1934 to 1936, during the Nazi era, the old stadium on this site was demolished and a new stadium and sports complex built as the venue for the 1936 Olympic Games. Inspired by the clear geometric forms of sports’ arenas in the classical world, architect Werner March created a stadium capable of holding an audience of 100,000 people.
Today’s Maifeld is just one part of the Reichssportfeld (Imperial Sports Arena) planned by the Nazi regime as a site for propaganda events. The sports and events complex constructed for the Olympic Games also included the Waldbühne venue, designed like an ancient amphitheatre. In 1936, the Waldbühne was the site of the Olympic gymnastics competitions. Today, it has become a much-loved open-air concert venue, surrounded by green spaces.
Anyone visiting the Olympic Stadium complex is sure to visit the Glockenturm – the bell tower –, especially renowned for its amazing views. The lift whisks you to the top of the tower for a panoramic vista out across the nearby Maifeld and stadium to the city or over the Waldbühne to the woodlands beyond.
The eleventh Olympic Games took place from 1 to 16 August 1936. After 1936, another 20 major events were held at the Reichssportfeld, including the 1937 German football championship, the state reception for Mussolini and various sports festivals. At the beginning of the Second World War, the Reichssportfeld, which was partially set below ground level, was converted to a bunker, a production site for detonators, a storage area for munitions, food and wine, and a back-up radio broadcasting site.
A history trail on the Olympic site has 45 panels in English and German offering a fascinating insight into the complex’s origins and development down the years, as well as information on the historical art works from the early years of the Nazi regime.
On event-free days, you can explore the impressive stadium itself, either with an audio guide or as part of a guided tour. On live tours, you can also visit sectors normally off-limits to the public, including the locker rooms, underground warm-up halls, and the VIP areas.
