In what year did Rome eventually host the Olympic Games?

  • 1956

  • 1960

  • 1964

  • 1972

Answer

Rome eventually hosted the Olympic Games in 1960. This was after the city's initial bid for the 1908 Olympics was rejected, and again for the 1940 and 1944 Olympics, which were both canceled due to World War II. The 1960 Games were a success, and Rome was able to showcase its ancient ruins and modern architecture to the world.
