history

Founding time

The Jena fraternity , which was established in 1815, separated on January 28, 1840 into the fraternity on the Fürstenkeller and the fraternity on the Burgkeller . The former later took the name Germania . The latter added her name to Arminia fraternity in the castle cellar in 1859 . The name on the castle cellar refers to the old Burgkeller inn , which was destroyed in the Second World War and which the fraternity initially used as a constant for their pubs and later as a corporation house. Therefore it is commonly referred to as the "Burgkellerburschenschaft".

The time until 1945

On June 22nd, 1870, Arminia founded the Jenenser Deputy Convent together with the Jenenser Burschenschaften Germania and Teutonia . In 1881 Arminia was a founding member of the General Deputy Convent , later the German Burschenschaft (DB). In 1893 Arminia bought the Burgkeller inn .

At the First World War 325 Arminen participated, of whom were killed 65th In the winter semester 1930/31 the association consisted of 429 old men and 163 members of the Aktivitas .

The fraternity was dissolved in the course of the National Socialist “ synchronization ” of all student organizations. From the winter semester of 1937/38 on, the active business was continued as Kameradschaft Menzel , from March 1940 as Kameradschaft Lützow . In the Second World War 102 members and the fraternity house died, the castle cellar, was at an air attack on Jena badly damaged in March 1945th

The time after 1945

During the time of the GDR , the seat of the association was in Mainz , after the old Arminia and the Moguntua fraternity, founded in Mainz in 1949, merged in 1950 to form the Arminia-Jena fraternity in Mainz . In 1950 Arminia was involved in the re-establishment of the German fraternity. In 1956 the company moved into its own liaison house in Mainz. In 1966, Arminia headed the boys' day of the German fraternity.

After the reunification , Arminia returned to her home country in 1990. Since returning to Jena, the Gasthaus Grüne Tanne , the founding place of the original fraternity, has served as a fraternity house for Arminia .

Arminia left the DB in 2008. Since November 3, 2012, the Arminia adB fraternity has belonged again to the Red Association and since September 30, 2016 to the General German Fraternity, of which it is a founding member.

In April 2015, the Arminia fraternity in Mainz , which had emerged as an independent fraternity again in 1992 on the occasion of the Arminia fraternity's return to the castle cellar in Jena.

Old Burschenschaft Burgkeller in the DB

After leaving the DB, 14 members of Arminia split off on June 13, 2008 as the Alte Burgkellerburschenschaft zu Jena . This was included in the DB on the Burschentag 2009. A dispute over the name "Burgkellerburschenschaft" was brought to court between the two associations. As a result, the new foundation has been renamed the Alte Burschenschaft Burgkeller in the DB and has committed not to use the short form Burgkellerburschenschaft . The band of the new foundation has the colors black and red (read from below) with golden percussion. A black student cap is worn as headgear. Her motto is: honor, freedom, fatherland.
