Description: Originally started in 1937 this stadium has undergone many changes. it was originally a project of Mussolini to promote sports and physical health. For this reason, we can still see the remnants of fascism in the mosaics, large statues displaying virility and the monolith in front of the stadium still bearing Mussolini's name. Work on the stadium was paused during the war, but then finished in the 1950's and inaugurated at the 1960's Olympics. Today it is still used as the official soccer stadium of Rome.
Alongside the Olympic stadium, you can find a smaller running track known as Stadio dei Marmi. It is named for the many marble statues lining the track. Each one is a representation of a major city in Italy. Rome takes the image of the Roman emperor Augustus.
