Olympic Velodrome, Rome

The Olympic Velodrome (Italian: Velodromo Olimpico) was a sports venue located in Rome, Italy.

Constructed for the 1960 Summer Olympics, it hosted the track cycling and field hockey events.

Soon after it was built problems were found, as water was draining away the foundations on one side of the velodrome.

It was last used for competition in 1968, when it hosted the UCI Track Cycling World Championships.
