Abstract

The first Olympic Games originated in 776 b.C. in the city of Olympia in Greece. The games were of religious significance and were held in honor of Zeus. During the games, wars were suspended and peace was governed. In 393 the emperor Theodosius ended the games considered as pagan rites. However, the games did not die but continued in England, France and Germany as a sports festival. Only in 1894 the Baron Pierre de Coubertin, during a conference at the University of the Sorbonne in Paris, began the modern era of the Olympics. With the modern era the Olympic Games have also taken on several interesting configurations: Winter Games, Paralympic Games, Games for young people. The Sport, in addition to the role of entertainment and competition, has taken on a very important significance in the life of the communities and today is the protagonist of urban regeneration and territories. In the last century we have witnessed many projects where the sport has helped to reflect on the cities of the future. The Volume 7, No. 1, 2019 of EdA intends to analyze the relationship between Architecture and Sport through contributions of historical research, reflection and operational proposals with interesting implications for the communities.
