Olympic Flame

The Olympic flame represents the spirit of the Olympic Games, symbolising unity, peace and the sporting spirit that transcends national borders and brings together people from all over the world.

The tradition of the Olympic flame has its roots in ancient Greece, where a flame was lit on the altar of Hera in Olympia to commemorate the ancient Olympic Games. This tradition was revived at the modern Olympic Games in Amsterdam in 1928.

The Olympic Torch Relay has been a tradition since the 1936 Berlin Olympics. The flame is lit in Olympia, Greece, using a mirror by sunlight, and then carried by a series of torchbearers through various countries to the site of the Olympic Games.

The route of the Olympic Torch Relay varies from one edition of the Games to the next, but it generally aims to cross different countries and regions, symbolising world unity and the Olympic spirit.

The Olympic Flame Lighting Ceremony in Olympia is a solemn and highly symbolic event, involving the participation of vestal priestesses who have the power to light the Olympic flame.

The Olympic flame is extinguished at the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games, symbolising the end of the competitions and the departure of the athletes to their respective countries, but also the hope that the flame will be relit at the next Games.

The Olympic flame remains a powerful symbol of the Olympic spirit, world unity and the aspiration for peace through sport. Its journey through different countries and cultures strengthens the bonds between nations and reminds us of the importance of cooperation and mutual respect.
