The fraternity Germania Tübingen (B! Germania) is a striking and colorful student union at the Eberhard Karls University of Tübingen . It is the oldest fraternity in Tübingen and one of the oldest fraternities at all. Its members are often referred to as Bixiers or Eckgermanen .
history
In Tübingen there were several associations whose members would later participate in the founding of Germania. Balder names the connections Romantica (January 17, 1813, blue-white-black), Teutonia (November 19, 1814, green-blue-white) and Concordia (December 8, 1816, black-blue). Teutonia, in particular, was already pursuing pre-fraternity goals, which is why the later radical fraternity member Karl Ludwig Sand joined it when he began his studies in 1814.
On December 12, 1816, 57 Tübingen students founded the Arminia fraternity with the colors black and blue. Jacob Friedrich Habermaas was the founding chairman. After the Wartburg Festival in 1817, she joined the General German Burschenschaft. The Arminia was dissolved in November 1817, but reopened in April 1818. The change to the name Germania and the colors black and red with golden percussion dates back to this time . In autumn 1819, Germania was dissolved by the authorities. 1824 they changed to refer to custom connection or Comment fraternity . This connection resulted in the Corps Suevia Tübingen in 1831 . As early as 1828, the Tübingen fire riders (colors black-blue) split off from the Commentburschenschaft . A Concordia followed (1829 to 1831, blue-red-gold). This resulted in another Germania with the colors black-gold-red, which existed from 1831 to 1833. In 1832, a Society of Patriots - a forerunner of the later Normannia Tübingen association - split off from this .
Then a Giovannia (1835 to 1836). They were followed in 1837 by the Eiferteigesellschaft , which later called itself Germania and then in 1839 the Society of Sword Brothers . Germania reopened in 1840 and lived until 1853 when it was banned. It continued to exist as Normannia (black-white-blue) and Tubingia (blue-white-gold). In 1862 the colors black-gold-red were reintroduced and in 1865 the name was finally renamed Germania .
From 1896 onwards, Germania stopped accepting Jews. In 1904 there was a resolution by the Tübingen Association not to give members of Jewish corporations any more satisfaction. In 1919 the Tübingen Germania came forward with the motion to prevent "Jews and descendants of Jews" from being accepted into the German fraternity .
In the 1930/31 winter semester, Germania had 430 old men, 60 inactive and 24 active.
After the NSDAP came to power, Germania joined the old fraternity in 1935 . Later, the Ludwig Uhland comradeship was founded together with the Roigel royal society in Tübingen . 79 Germanic tribes were killed in World War II.
After the war the comradeship was continued under the name Tubingia until 1949, when Germania and Roigel separated again. Germania was involved in the re-establishment of the German Burschenschaft , and in 1973 it resigned.
Color
Boys and foxes wear a ribbon in the colors black-gold-red (from below) with golden percussion . The order in which the colors are named “from below” is unusual for university cities with the exception of Jena, Halle and Leipzig. A red floppy hat is worn as the head color. The charged people wear black pekeschen.
Fraternity house
The first corporation house of Germania, inaugurated in 1896 for the 80th foundation festival , was called the Bierkirchle . It was replaced by a larger house from 1930 to 1931 by Paul Schmitthenner .
The house ⊙ of Germania is located at the foot of the Österberg on the Neckar bridge. The designation as Eckgermanen comes from the location of the house on the corner of Gartenstrasse / Mühlstrasse and serves to distinguish it from the street Germans , the old Strasbourg fraternity Germania in Tübingen.
Conditions
Tübingen Germania is part of the South German Cartel , the oldest fraternity cartel. There is also a friendship with the Prague fraternity Arminia zu Bochum.
