OLYMPIA 2016 - 1936: Verlassenes Olympisches Dorf bei Berlin
Deutschland, Germany, Elstal bei Berlin, Brandenburg, 28.05.2016
Abandoned swimming pool inside the village of the Olympic Games in Elstal near Berlin. From the series Berlin's forgotten Olympic Village. The Olympic Village for the XI. Olympic Games in 1936 was built in Elstal on the edge of Berlin under the murderous Nazi Regime. Today it is an almost forgotten relic of the most infamous Olympic Games in modern history – a Lost Place that has fallen into disrepair and remains mysterious and spooky. Its history is quite remarkable: During the Games itself, in the summer of 1936 as Europe teetered on the brink of war, around 4,000 athletes from 50 nations lived here - including Jesse Owens who won four gold medals. But its architects, Werner and Walter March, had already planed the site’s future use: the ‘Village’ was converted into a military hospital and an infantry training facility during WWII. After the war ended in 1945 and the area became part of the (East-) German Democratic Republic, the Olympic Village was occupied for nearly 50 years by the Red Army of the Soviet Union - until its withdrawal from united German in 1992. From this period, many traces remain as ghostly abandonments. At present, the Olympic Village in Elstal largely remains as it was left then. As a historically protected memorial since 1993, it increasingly attracts visitors interested in its abandoned heritage. Of late, foreign investors have shown an interest and plans are afoot to build luxurious flats in the former ‘House of the Nations’ over the coming years.//IPON-BONESS_111000987/Credit:Stefan Boness/Ipon/SIPA/1608011115 *** Local Caption *** 00766455

OLYMPIA 2016 - 1936: Verlassenes Olympisches Dorf bei Berlin
Deutschland, Germany, Elstal bei Berlin, Brandenburg, 28.05.2016
Painting of Lenin, Wladimir Iljitsch Uljanow, inside the Hindenburg House inside the village of the Olympic Games in Elstal near Berlin. From the series Berlin's forgotten Olympic Village. The Olympic Village for the XI. Olympic Games in 1936 was built in Elstal on the edge of Berlin under the murderous Nazi Regime. Today it is an almost forgotten relic of the most infamous Olympic Games in modern history – a Lost Place that has fallen into disrepair and remains mysterious and spooky. Its history is quite remarkable: During the Games itself, in the summer of 1936 as Europe teetered on the brink of war, around 4,000 athletes from 50 nations lived here - including Jesse Owens who won four gold medals. But its architects, Werner and Walter March, had already planed the site’s future use: the ‘Village’ was converted into a military hospital and an infantry training facility during WWII. After the war ended in 1945 and the area became part of the (East-) German Democratic Republic, the Olympic Village was occupied for nearly 50 years by the Red Army of the Soviet Union - until its withdrawal from united German in 1992. From this period, many traces remain as ghostly abandonments. At present, the Olympic Village in Elstal largely remains as it was left then. As a historically protected memorial since 1993, it increasingly attracts visitors interested in its abandoned heritage. Of late, foreign investors have shown an interest and plans are afoot to build luxurious flats in the former ‘House of the Nations’ over the coming years.//IPON-BONESS_111001007/Credit:Stefan Boness/Ipon/SIPA/1608011115 *** Local Caption *** 00766455

OLYMPIA 2016 - 1936: Verlassenes Olympisches Dorf bei Berlin
Deutschland, Germany, Elstal bei Berlin, Brandenburg, 28.05.2016
Photo of Jesse Owens who won four gold medals, at an abandoned Plattenbau, the typical communist-era pre-fabricated blocks of housing, inside the village of the Olympic Games in Elstal near Berlin. From the series Berlin's forgotten Olympic Village. The Olympic Village for the XI. Olympic Games in 1936 was built in Elstal on the edge of Berlin under the murderous Nazi Regime. Today it is an almost forgotten relic of the most infamous Olympic Games in modern history – a Lost Place that has fallen into disrepair and remains mysterious and spooky. Its history is quite remarkable: During the Games itself, in the summer of 1936 as Europe teetered on the brink of war, around 4,000 athletes from 50 nations lived here - including Jesse Owens who won four gold medals. But its architects, Werner and Walter March, had already planed the site’s future use: the ‘Village’ was converted into a military hospital and an infantry training facility during WWII. After the war ended in 1945 and the area became part of the (East-) German Democratic Republic, the Olympic Village was occupied for nearly 50 years by the Red Army of the Soviet Union - until its withdrawal from united German in 1992. From this period, many traces remain as ghostly abandonments. At present, the Olympic Village in Elstal largely remains as it was left then. As a historically protected memorial since 1993, it increasingly attracts visitors interested in its abandoned heritage. Of late, foreign investors have shown an interest and plans are afoot to build luxurious flats in the former ‘House of the Nations’ over the coming years.//IPON-BONESS_111001023/Credit:Stefan Boness/Ipon/SIPA/1608011115 *** Local Caption *** 00766455
