The German House has been the „living room for team Germany“ and therefore an exclusive meeting place during the Olympic and Paralymic Games in Pyeong- Chang. The German House was situated in the 1,500- square-meter building complex at Birch Hill Golf Club during these winter games. With more than 300 visitors daily it was again the base station for the national sports scene. After Vancouver, London, Sochi and Rio it was the fifth large “German House” project for the ISGUS team. With the project team benefitting from their previous experi- ence of past events they know preparations had to start early for a smooth transition to PyeongChang. After an initial test installation in summer 2017 the whole equipment was sent to South Korea by ship. Two emplo- yees were responsible for the installation and support on site. ZEUS® ACCESS CONTROL ENSURES SECURITY IN THE GERMAN HOUSE The ISGUS Group was once more a partner of the German House during the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games 2018 in PyeongChang. After the Games in Seoul 1988 this was the second Olympic Games to be held in South Korea. The host presented the 102 events with the motto „Passion. Connected.” Security is an important aspect - so it is not surprising that the ZEUS® Access Control solution plays an import- ant role in the German House. Accordingly, the visitors wanted to move freely in the magnificent atmosphere of the world of sports. Numerous competition sites were located in the direct neighbourhood which was certainly a big plus in South Korea. Only a few meters to the Olympic Village and the „Alpensia Resort“, which included the competition sites for biathlon, cross-country skiing, nordic combined and tobogganing. © ISGUS/picture alliance 12
