Amsterdam 1928: Olympic venues overview
Twelve competition venues were used for the Olympic Games Amsterdam 1928, four of which remain in use today. Two of the venues still in use are bodies of water: the canal at Sloten and Buiten IJ.
Seven of the competition venues were existing, one was new and four were temporary, including three in the Olympic Complex erected next to the Olympic Stadium, which was home to the Wrestling Pavilion, the Fencing Pavilion and the Swimming Stadium, all of which were dismantled after the Games.
Three of the existing venues have also been dismantled: the Oude Stadion (Old Stadium), Zeeburg Rifle Range and the modern pentathlon equestrian venue at Amersfoort. The sailing venue in the Zuiderzee is now reclaimed land.The Olympic Stadium, which has been refurbished, hosted the Opening and Closing Ceremonies and several of the competitions. It is now used for high-performance and grassroots track and field events. There was no official Olympic Village.
