- Frei Paul Otto was a German architect and structural engineer noted for his use of lightweight structures, in particular tensile and membrane structures, including the roof of the Olympic Stadium in Munich for the 1972 Summer Olympics.
Otto won the RIBA Royal Gold Medal in 2006 and was awarded the Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2015, shortly before his death.

great footage!
2021, have been there yesterday, all the structures still stand. All the giant tents are still good. All acrylic glass panels yellowed once, had to be replaced, have yellowed again, and will be replaced again soon. Munich will not be letting them go, as the entire surrounding area is now most unique and beautiful. Due to a more recent deal and a new stadium being built elsewhere, the main stadium is banned from hosting sporting events, instead it is now the venue to host live stadium acts like the Rolling Stones or Rammstein, with 60.000 visitors.
2021 and i can tell you, the major would rather have one leg sawn off without anesthetics than to let any of these roof structures go to waste. All of the structures are still there, you can visit them if you ever come to Munich, and they will be maintained indefinitely. 100% intact and in use, all of it, for all of the 1972 tent roofs.
Originally most of the eastern stands should also have been covered for the Olympics in 1972, although by a separate tent roof. But only the main foundations for the additional roof were built.
If the additional roof modelled in this video had been built, some 80 % of the seats would've been covered - and the track and field facilities would've been kept.
But another model was developed to cover so that 100 % of the seats would'v been covered.
The additional roof is called Seilbinder in German. And again the track and field facilities would've been kept.
Lastly a roof for a rebuilt Olympic stadium for football only was suggested - 100 % of the seats would've been covered.
There was talk of finishing it, I think, as part of a renovation. Because it was already a landmark, it was rejected and Allianz was built instead
@@tylerkochman1007 That was a flat supended roof, not a tent construction similar to the existing one.
The first high-tech buildings in the history of the olympic games.
He protect the faithful from the sun haha awesome
Can anyone tell me the dimensions of the stadium as well as the semi circular ring above it?

Too low res to appreciate the artistic achievement. Crylstalline structures shown through fogged up lens. What's the point?
Are you aware this is from 1972, right? Almost 50y ago
@@juanpabloespinolag It's not a criticism of the limited videography. Just a wish that these beautifully detailed structures could be seen at their best. The buildings rely heavily on their connecting elements and it would be great to be able to look at those closely.
When Germans go to work!
