Munich chosen as Germany's 2036 Olympics bid city

Original: Munich was on Saturday selected ahead of the Cologne/Rhine-Ruhr region as part of a German national bid to host the 2036

Munich was selected on Saturday ahead of the Cologne/Rhine-Ruhr region as the German candidate city in a national bid to host the Summer Olympic Games in 2036, 2040 or 2044. It would be a return of the Olympics to Munich, which hosted the 1972 Summer Games. Cologne/Rhine-Ruhr lost out in the domestic selection, with a final international decision still to come.

Why now: Germany has officially picked its candidate city for a future Summer Olympics, a rare European bid for the Games.
