Get to know more about it and maybe join us in that endeavor!

Happy End

Back to the Roofs: European Championships in Munich 2022

For me, this is the happy end that is just a re-beginning.

This summer, Munich hosted several European Championships at once. The sun played along and the atmosphere was captivating – reminding people about the excellence and spirit we humans can display – after years of pandemic angst plus difficult worries on the horizon.

Check out some pics here and we highly recommend visiting the City of Munich page.
