- Airbnb is proud to announce its position as an Official Partner of the Olympic and Paralympic Torch Relays, and to celebrate, is opening the doors to an iconic stop on the Olympic torch route.
- The childhood home of Baron Pierre de Coubertin, founder of the modern Olympic Games, is now available on Airbnb.
With almost a year until Paris 2024, the childhood home of Baron Pierre de Coubertin has been transformed to take guests on a journey through time. For one night only guests will get the opportunity to immerse themselves in Olympic history in Château de Mirville, an iconic stop on the Olympic torch relay in 2024.
Built in the 16th century, Château de Mirville is where the young Coubertin developed a love of sports that would eventually inspire him to revive and evolve the ancient Olympic Games into the modern Games as we know them today. And on July 18, one night in the historic home - recently restored to its original grandeur with the support of the IOC and Airbnb’s Heritage and Local Tourism program - will be opened to a unique stay on Airbnb for €24* in honor of Paris 2024.
