Wolfgang Bartels (skier)

Wolfgang Bartels (14 July 1940 to 6 February 2007) was a German alpine skier from the Berchtesgaden region of Bavaria. He was born in Bischofswiesen and died in Ramsau bei Berchtesgaden. Bartels raced for the United Team of Germany, the joint East and West German squad, at the 1964 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck. His best result there came in the alpine downhill, where he won the bronze medal. In the slalom he finished ninth, and in the giant slalom he started but did not finish the race. His Olympic record is therefore one medal in a single Games, earned in the speed discipline of alpine skiing.
