PARIS 2024

Calendário e quadro de medalhas Olímpicas

By Phil Bainbridge

July 26, 2024 - O Jogos Olípicos de verão, os Jogos da XXXIII Olimpíada, têm lugar em Paris, França. Os Jogos Olímpicos da era moderna foram criados em 1896, tendo sido a tradição das medalhas de ouro, prata e bronze introduzida nos Jogos de 1904.

The Paris Olympic medals contain ironwork from the Eiffel Tower, the first time any host city has incorporated pieces of a national monument. Designed by jeweller Chaumet, the 18-gram hexagon tokens, representing the shape of France, are made of iron from past refurbishments of the Tower stored for years in a warehouse whose location is secret.

The back of the medals features the Greek goddess of victory, Nike, charging forward, with the Acropolis to one side and the Eiffel Tower to the other.

Medals for the Paralympics feature a view of the Eiffel Tower from underneath, and are stamped with Paris 2024 in braille, in tribute to Frenchman Louis Braille, who invented the reading and writing system for visually impaired people.

The 5,084 medals are produced by France’s mint, the Monnaie de Paris.
