    To commemorate the twelve victims of the attack by Palestinian terrorists on the Israeli team at the Summer Olympics in Munich on September 5, 1972, the Olympia-Attentat memorial site (also known as Gedenkort Einschnitt) was created. Located in the Olympic Park near the main crime scene in the former Olympic Village, the memorial site provides multimedia information about the course of the attack and the eleven athletes and the police officer who were killed. The pavilion in a terrain cut was opened on September 6, 2017. The memorial site was designed by the Tirschenreuth-based architecture firm Brückner & Brückner.

    This memorial is somewhat hidden / off the beaten track. Very informative. Also a good place for a short break away from the hustle and bustle.
