Olympic Stadium
The Olympic Stadium will undergo comprehensive renovation until 2029. This includes VIP lounges, changing rooms, sanitary facilities, and technical areas. The building fabric, fire protection, and building services will also be renewed, and the original color scheme restored. During the closure for renovation, concerts will be held at the Allianz Arena.
Olympic Tower
The Olympic Tower will be renovated by 2026, with fire protection upgraded to current standards. Technical systems also require renewal. As part of this process, the façades will be restored using original materials and designs to repair corrosion damage and improve structural and energy performance. In the atrium building, public areas and shops will be modernized while remaining true to the historic design. Interior surfaces in the tower’s viewing platform will also be refurbished in line with monument protection standards. After completion, the popular revolving restaurant will reopen.
Tent Roof
The iconic Olympic tent roof, covering 78,000 square meters, will be renovated between 2026 and 2029. The plexiglass panels must be completely replaced for safety reasons. The roof was last recovered in the late 1990s. Corrosion protection for steel components and cables will also be renewed, and the foundations of the cable anchor points repaired. The roofs over the stadium, Olympic Hall, and swimming hall will be renovated in stages. Carrying out the tent roof renovation during ongoing operations poses a significant engineering challenge.
Bus and Subway Station Olympiazentrum
Since the extension of subway line U3 from Olympiazentrum to Moosach, the bus terminal above is no longer in use. However, as a central entry point to the Olympic Park, the Olympic Village, and the BMW plant, it remains important. Renovation will take place in several phases: the deteriorated platform roofs will be restored true to the original design, and kiosks and restrooms will be refurbished. Plans also include redesigning the sealed surfaces where buses once stopped, creating a “green gateway” with attractive green spaces, seating areas, and fountains. Additionally, municipal utilities plan to install charging stations for electric vehicles in the northern section.
TUM Campus
The new campus of the Technical University of Munich is becoming one of Europe’s most modern university facilities, built primarily in timber construction. The new building for the TUM School of Medicine and Health, designed by Vorarlberg architects Dietrich Untertrifaller, is largely complete. It is notable for its low height, which ensures that the view of the tent roof is not obstructed. The outdoor facilities are currently being completed. The 1972 artwork by Otto Piene, the light satellite, will once again find a prominent location south of the building. In future, cars will access the site from the Mittlerer Ring, relieving the residents of the Olympic Village from through traffic.
