The present thesis deals with golden section in geometry, which can be constructed in many different ways. After an overview of classical constructions and some modern cases follows a deeper examination of examples of the golden section in geometry, largely based on research articles related to this matter. Those articles refer to the golden section and quasi twelve-point star, triangle centers in the golden triangles, regular polygons, parabola, Fibonacci circle chains and iterated harmonic divisions. Propositions will mostly be proved by definitions and theorems from elementary and partly from projective geometry, with some additional ones introduced in individual cases.
