In 1974, Bayern won the European Cup for the first time and has since gone on to win the Champions League, including the historic treble in 2013 and again in 2020.
Bayern Munich’s home stadium is the Allianz Arena, a modern stadium that has been in use since 2005. The stadium has a capacity of over 75,000 spectators and is known for its illuminated exterior, which can light up in different colours. The club previously played in the Olympiastadion Munich, which opened during the 1972 Olympic Games.
