About

El Parque Olímpico de Montreal es un complejo emblemático construido para los Juegos Olímpicos de Verano de 1976, que incluye la característica torre inclinada, la más alta del mundo, y el Estadio Olímpico, que ahora es un importante punto de referencia y atracción turística en la ciudad.

The Parc olympique, or Olympic Park, sits in Montreal, Canada, and was built for the 1976 Summer Olympics. It remains one of the city's best-known landmarks and a common stop for visitors exploring the city.

What you will see

  • The inclined tower, which is the tallest in the world, leaning over the site and visible from far across the city.
  • The Olympic Stadium, the main venue of the complex and a central part of the park.
  • The open grounds around the buildings, which give the park its sense of scale.

Planning your visit

The park is located at 375, boulevard Cardinal-Léger, in Montreal. It works well as a half-day outing, whether you are interested in architecture, sport, or the story of the city's Olympic years. Because it is a landmark attraction, many visitors combine it with other stops in Montreal, and it is an easy addition to a wider itinerary of the city.

If you are travelling with an interest in design, the tower's striking inclined form makes the site worth a look from more than one angle. Check current arrangements for entry and tower access before you go, as these can change.
