Salut à tou.te.s,
Êtes-vous impatients de suivre les Jeux olympiques de Paris ? Si c'est le cas, il est également temps de revenir sur l’histoire des Jeux olympiques modernes. En 1896, Pierre de Coubertin, passionné de sport, souhaite relancer les compétitions sportives internationales à l'image des Grecs de l'Antiquité. Une tradition a perduré, celle du parcours de la flamme olympique, actuellement en tournée dans toute la France.
