Ahead of their Euro 2024 opener against Romania, Ukraine has brought a section of seats from Kharkiv's Soniachnyi Stadium, also known as 'Sunny,' which was destroyed by Russian shelling in May 2022, to Munich. The stand was installed at Odeonsplatz as a reminder of the ongoing war in Eastern Europe. The initiative was supported by the Ukrainian Consulate in Munich and volunteers. The stadium, originally built for Euro 2012, serves as a poignant symbol amid the football festivities. This installation coincides with Ukraine's first match at Euro 2024.
