Immerse yourself in the incredible history of the Olympic Games!

From Egypt to Greece, via the Roman world, travel through time, from Antiquity to the present day, and discover those who played the sports of yesterday and today.

Based on the research and discoveries of historians and archaeologists, the exhibition highlights the sporting practice and the birth of the games in Olympia in Greece, up to its modern organization initiated by Pierre de Coubertin.
