About this audio guide
This guide to the Olympic Stadium in Kyiv follows Lajos Gavro, a Hungarian revolutionary who became the region's military commissar in the early 1920s and set out to build a stadium on this hillside. It touches on the underground newspaper he once smuggled into Budapest and the famous name he chose to hang over the gates. Best heard from the stands, looking down into the bowl of the pitch.
