The Olympia Schwimmhalle is an aquatics centre located in the Olympiapark in Munich, Germany. It hosted the swimming, diving, water polo, and the swimming part of the modern pentathlon events at the 1972 Summer Olympics. At the Olympics, the stadium had a 9000-seat temporary capacity which was reduced to 1,500 soon afterwards. During the 1972 Summer Olympics, in the 29 Olympic swimming events, all the Olympic Records were broken and 20 new World Records were achieved.
