history

The Berlin Wingolf was founded on August 11, 1843 at the Friedrich Wilhelms University (today Humboldt University) in Berlin . The forerunner was an edifying circle that had existed since the 30s of the 19th century , to which members of similar associations in Erlangen , Jena and Halle already belonged, from which the Uttenruthia Erlangen , the Erlanger Wingolf and the Hallenser Wingolf as well as the Hallenser Pflug (later fraternity of the plowers) belonged. have emerged. It is the second oldest Wingolfs connection. It was founded at the substantial instigation of the Bonn Wingolf , which is why numerous members were also members of the Bonn Wingolf. The Berlin Wingolf is one of the four founding associations of the Wingolfsbund, together with the Bonner Wingolf, the Hallenser Wingolf and the Uttenruthia Erlangen. Until the dissolution in 1935 he carried the motto

"Δί ένός πάντα" - "Di henos panta!"
(Greek: through one - Jesus Christ - everything!), borrowed from the Bible passage ( Phil 4.13  lut )

Since the re-establishment in 1955 it has been: "Unity and law and freedom."

In 1894 the Charlottenburger Wingolf was founded as a subsidiary of the Berliner Wingolf in the then independent neighboring city of Charlottenburg . In 1924 Wingolf was founded at the Berlin School of Commerce. Like all student associations, these had to be dissolved during the Nazi era. Since its re-establishment in 1955, the Berlin Wingolf has also continued the tradition of the two former subsidiary associations . Since then, the house of the former Charlottenburg Wingolf has served as the connection house.
