Germany competed at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, from 7 to 23 February 2014. The first round of nominations was on 18 December, the second round on 23 January. Germany sent 153 athletes (76 men, 77 women). Chef de Mission was Michael Vesper. The outfitting was held in January at the Erding Air Base.
During the Games, Germany had a German House, that was located in the village of Estosadok, on the Mzymta River, upstream from Krasnaya Polyana (Mountain Cluster).
German president Joachim Gauck did not attend the 2014 Winter Olympics. He has not said publicly that the decision was a political gesture.
On 21 February it was announced that biathlete Evi Sachenbacher-Stehle had tested positive for methylhexanamine and was sent home from Sochi.
