Where were the olympic games held in 1992?

The 1988 Winter Olympics were held in Calgary, Canada and the 1988 Summer Olympics were held in Seoul, South Korea. The 1992 Winter Olympics were held in Albertville, France and the 1992 Summer Olympics were held in Barcelona, Spain. There were no Olympics in 1995. The 1994 Winter Olympics were held in Lillehammer, Norway and the 1996 Summer Olympics were held in Atlanta, USA.


Why do the summer and winter Olympics take place in different years?

The Winter and Summer Olympics were held on the same year until 1992 when the Summer Olympics were held in Barcelona and the Winter Olympics were held in Albertville, France. The IOC voted to change the tradition and the next Winter Olympics were held in 1994 in Lillehammer, Norway.


What Olympics were held in France?

Winter Olympics held in France: Chamonix, 1924 Grenoble, 1968 Albertville, 1992


Was winter Olympics ever held at two year interval?

Yes, in 1992 and 1994. Up to 1992, the Winter Olympics and Summer Olympics were held in the same year. The International Olympic Committee decided to split the Winter and Summer Games by two years in the hopes of getting more attention for the Games since they would be held two years apart instead of in the same year. To do this, they scheduled the Winter Olympics for 1994, two years after the 1992 Winter Olympics and kept the Summer Olympics scheduled for 1996, four years after the 1992 Summer Olympics. 1992 and 1994 is the only time the Winter Olympics were held two years apart.


Why did they not have the 2004 Olympics?

Prior to 1992 both summer and winter Olympics were held in the same calendar year. After that year it was decided that the winter Olympics should be held in the off two years from the summer Olympics so in 1994 the winter Olympics were held in Lillihammer, Norway just two years after the previous winter Olympics. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_Olympic_Games
