Olympic Day was established by the International Olympic Committee in 1948 to commemorate the birth of the modern Olympic Games on June 23, 1894 in the Sorbonne, Paris.

The purpose of the anniversary is to encourage all people in the world to participate in sports activities, regardless of gender, age or sports skill level.

Organization: International Olympic Committee, referred to as the International Olympic Committee.

After its establishment in 1894, it was headquartered in Paris.

The First World War broke out in 1914. In order to avoid the destruction of the war, the headquarters moved to Lausanne, Switzerland, known as the "International Cultural City" on April 10, 1915.

There is the Olympic Museum, the Olympic Research Center, a street named after Coubertin, a stadium, etc.

For decades, Lausanne has made significant contributions to the development of the Olympic movement. No wonder some people call Lausanne the "Olympic Capital".
