'Klagebalken' Memorial

The 'Klagebalken' memorial is the work of the german sculptor Fritz Koenig. Erected on September 27, 1995, the ten-meter-wide granite beam is located on the connecting path between the Olympic Stadium and the former Olympic Village under a support cable of the tent roof construction. On the beam, which rests on a base, the names of the eleven victims of the 'Munich Massacre' from Israel are engraved in hebrew letters and the name of the german policeman in latin letters.
