Stoned Celebs on a Sunday
This Sunday we decided for a little trip (despite storm and rain to the Olympic park to walk around the stadium, the tower, swim arena and the little lake there where you can capture these "stone monuments" showing feet and hands of celebrities from music, sports and entertainment. It was indeed a Beautiful Sunday at least here.
In the past I was always wondering about the background as not even Google helped me - but finally I was successful on the website of the Olympic park hosting company to find the explanation:
This is the home of the stars - that's the message of the Munich Olympic Walk of Stars (MOWOS). Munich's Olympic Park is a place where the world's famous faces come together. And this has been documented since 2003 via a pathway on the banks of the Olympic Lake.
National and international legends from the worlds of sport, music and entertainment have left - and will continue to leave - their everlasting mark with hands and signets in the concrete and take their place on the Olympic Park's MOWOS. To be included in the Walk of Stars, the celebrities must have achieved successes in the Olympic Stadium, the Olympic Hall, the Olympic Swimming Pool or in the Olympic Ice Sports Centre, or have earned their place around the Olympic Park.
