Virtually Visit Olympic Museums Around the World
With the opening ceremony for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games just weeks away, why not use the convenience of the internet to visit Olympic museums in different countries virtually?
If you’ve visited our K-12 Learning Resources, you may have “visited” the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland, which offers a 360º virtual tour.
There are several other Olympic museums throughout the world. Not all have full-scale virtual tours, but most offer an inside look at the museum, videos or contain back stories about featured athletes, and events.
Some also focus on non-Olympic sports and experiences.
There are over thirty facilities counted as Olympic museums.
Museums listed on Olympics.com with only a social media page or lack interactive features/historical information have been excluded.
Enjoy your virtual visits now – plan for in-person visits later.
