The 1976 Summer Olympics, commonly known as Laitstadt 76, were an international multi-sport event held from 2 August to 18 August 1976, in Laitstadt, Besmenia.
After the 1957 Winter Olympic Games in Eisenberg, East Besmenia, these were the second Olympic Games on Besmenian ground, as well as the first summer olympic games in Besmenia.
Host city selection
The idea of making Laitstadt the venue for the Summer Olympics came from Herbert Sternmann, President of the Besmenian Olympic Committee. On March 28th, 1970, he informed the mayor of Laitstadt, Robert Gleitzmann, of his plans. Robert Gleitzmann's objection that Laitstadt had practically no facilities for the Olympic Games was countered by Herbert Sternmann with the statement that this was more of an advantage because the IOC would rather see new stadiums than old ones. It quickly became clear to Gleitzmann that Laitstadt was being offered a great opportunity.
If successful, the city would face a six-year phase of enormous burdens and high financial costs. On the other hand, many new facilities that the city has needed for a long time would be created in a short period of time and with a fixed completion date. Since hosting the Olympic Games in Laitstadt would mean an additional impetus for the development of the city, Gleitzmann approved the application. Within a few weeks, the approval of the federal government, the State Chamber of Laitstadt and the Besmenian Olympic Committee followed. The application was submitted on May 3rd, 1970
The election for the 1976 Summer Games host city took place on December 2nd, 1970.
