This decision was received with the greatest interest by the Swed­ ish Olympic Committee which took its first steps for the organization of the competition, as early as the autumn of 1910. This was no easy matter, however, for there was nothing to go by as re­ gards the new event as there was in the case of the other com­ petitions. In determining the five branches of sport that were to make up the Modern Pentathlon, the Swedish Olympic Committee had the following points in view: the five events ought to be such as would test the endurance, resolution, presence of mind, intrepidity, agility and strength of those taking part in the competition, while, in drawing up the detailed programme, it was necessary to have all the events of equivalent value, in order to make the Modern Penta­ thlon a competition of really all-round importance. As regards the shooting, which, of course, was not any test of physical strength, it was necessary to demand a corresponding degree of skill in that branch, in order to make it equivalent to each of the other iour events.

He won four Olympic medals: gold in Antwerp An elegant pose 1920, Chamonix 1924 and St. Moritz 1928, and silver in from young Lake Placid 1932. épéeist Fernand The American skier Colin Stewart (1927–2015), who de Montigny participated in the slalom at the 1948 St Moritz Winter Photo: Jean-François de Games, was awarded his degree in architecture from Montigny (JFdM) Archive Harvard in 1955, and there are probably several other Olympians like him who combined their passion for sport with architecture. On the other side of the medal, there was the Dutch architect Jan Wils (1891–1972), who had designed the Olympic Stadium of the 1928 Games in Amsterdam and who won the gold medal in architectural designs in the Olympic art competitions of these Games, but Wils never competed in any Olympic sporting discipline. The Belgian fencer, skater, ice and field hockey player Fernand de Montigny (1885–1974) was a multiple Olympic champion who won six official Olympic medals in 1908, 1912, 1920, 1924 and one non­official medal at the 1906 “Intercalated” Games. He was also the architect of the Antwerp Olympic Stadium where the Games of the VII Olympiad took place in 1920. This article will therefore focus on his remarkable career, both as a sportsman and as an architect. I would like to thank sincerely Jean­François de Montigny, the son of Fernand, who provided first­ hand information, documents and pictures of his father. Moreover, he donated many of these valuable documents to the Sportimonium (Sport and Olympic Museum, Zemst, Belgium) where they now reside and Introduction: sport and architecture can be consulted.

  • Press Texts Opening Preservation Hall Victor Boin
    Sneak a peek behind the museum walls SPORTIMONIUM, the sports and Olympic museum that opened its doors in Hofstade in 2004, is now the proud owner of its own, modern museum depot. For years the museum had to make do with rented warehouses or depots that were too small and too primitive to preserve our precious sports heritage in good museological conditions. Thanks to a sponsorship from the heirs of the late Victor Boin (1886-1974) and with the support of the government, the SPORTIMONIUM got a great impulse for the construction of its own depot, and a radically different course could finally be taken. As a result hundreds of meters of archives and thousands of objects, paintings, posters, photographs and other documents were moved to the brand new and modernly equipped Preservation Hall Victor Boin last month. From now on, everything is preserved in optimal conditions, so that all the collection pieces will remain in top condition for future generations and for exhibitions intra or extra muros. Not only the modern storage systems and the climate system are remarkable, but also the fact that the depot will serve as an emergency depot for the province of Flemish Brabant and that the audience can catch a glimpse of the Preservation Hall. Are you curious to find out what the brand new Preservation Hall Victor Boin looks like and how it works? Don't miss the open day on Saturday, October 1. Everyone is welcome between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. to enjoy for free: - Exclusive guided tours of the depot and the permanent exhibitions - Cheerful music by the Cotton City Brass Band - A café latte Victorio … or a hot waffle - A game of beugelen or trabol in the garden - Getting to know Victor Boin - A glimpse inside the hidden treasure chambers of the Sportimonium - … MORE ABOUT THE MUSEUM DEPOT Preservation Hall Victor Boin The first stone for the museum depot was laid on April 21, 2012.
