Looking back
Late in the evening of 5th September, 1972, the eyes of the world were focused on Fürstenfeldbruck. Thousands of people trembled as they followed the events at the airfield on their televisions and radios. Relatives and police officers, decision-makers and other eye-witnesses look back after many years and share their memories. Politically, socially and culturally active people keep the memory of the Olympic massacre alive and build bridges to the present.
