Munich Olympic Walk of Stars
Munich Olympic Walk of Stars
The stars are at home here. That is the message of the Munich Olympic Walk of Stars (MOWOS). The Munich Olympic Park witnesses a steady parade of the world's famous personalities. And that has been documented since 2003 by a path along the edge of the Olympic lake.
Famous national and international personalities from sport, music and entertainment have been immortalized or will immortalize themselves with their hand or footprint in concrete and then find their place in the MOWOS in the Olympic Park.
A precondition for being immortalized in the Walk of Stars is that the personalities have been successful in the Olympic stadium, hall, swimming centre or ice sports centre or have done something special for the Olympic Park.
The first cement mixers came on 28 May 2003 and in the meantime, the "Legends' Walk of Fame" has developed into a really popular attraction. Indeed, that's no wonder given the quality of this international hit list. More than 70 stars and important personalities are now immortalised in the MOWOS. They include His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama, a former President of Germany, the great and the good as well as Oscar winners. Not forgetting the stars with plaques on Hollywood Boulevard in L.A. Also, all continents are represented with the exception of Africa and Australia.
The immortalised legends have a good 1300 combined years in show business under their belts and, taken together, have sold an amazing 1.5 billion records all round the globe. The appearances by the immortalised stars from show business and sport in the Olympic Park alone have been visited by an estimated six million people.
The hard facts are on display along the 800 metre path alongside the Olympic lake at the foot of the Olympic tower. To date, a total of 3225 kg of cement and 50 square metres of steel mesh have gone into the 90 x 90 cm blocks. Finally, all of the blocks, just under 50 in number, have been sealed with 320 litres of special paint in order to protect them against the wind and weather.
