The fraternity Vineta Heidelberg is a color-bearing and optionally hitting fraternity in Heidelberg . It does not belong to any corporation and is a politically and denominationally independent community of students and former students of the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg and the surrounding universities. The members are called Vineten.
history
On July 10, 1879, seven high school graduates from Heidelberg founded the black , striking association Vineta. The founders were friends as early as 1874 and practiced rowing on the Neckar in their own foursome , which they named Vineta in memory of the corvette of the same name , which was the first German warship to circumnavigate the world from 1865–1868 . Due to the fact that two of the founders, Leopold Freiherr von Dusch and Julius Fischer, sons of Heidelberg university professors and rectors, the new corporation quickly gained in reputation. In 1909 the Vineta changed into a fraternity and in 1910 it was accepted into the corporation association of the German fraternity (DB). The fraternities Brunsviga Göttingen , Alemannia Bonn and Teutonia Freiburg sent support boys to Heidelberg for development.
After the DB dissolved in 1935, the Vineta fraternity was also dissolved. The Carl Cleinow Comradeship was founded in their place . It was named after one of the Göttingen support boys who fought as a fighter pilot in World War I and died in France in 1918. The camaraderie lasted until the end of World War II.
The first general meeting after the Second World War took place in 1948, and a short time later there was an active business again. In 1951 Vineta rejoined the German fraternity. In 1963 the Vineta was suspended for one year by the German fraternity because it had accepted a Turkish citizen. This was followed by the exclusion of this same member from Vineta. In 1969 the Vineta was again suspended and excluded at the Boy's Day in 1970 because it had given up the principle of compulsory beating. However, after upheaval phenomena in the DB they entered 1972 again after the German fraternity the Bestimmungsmensur had abolished. In 1991 Vineta finally left the DB and in 1992 was a founding member of the liberal Association of German Fraternities. In 1998 the Association of German Fraternities was dissolved, with a large number of members later founding the New German Burschenschaft (NeueDB). Since then, Vineta has been a free fraternity without an association. Vineta has had a close friendship with Alemannia Freiburg since 2016.
The House
The Vinetenhaus was built in the middle of the 19th century. In 1906 it became the property of Vineta. Today the house at Zwingerstraße 10 in Heidelberg is the central meeting point for all members.
Motto
The Vineta motto is: amico pectus, hosti frontem ( Latin for "the chest of friends, the forehead of enemies"). The motto expresses in a special form the principle of friendship and vitality of the members of Vineta.
coat of arms
The coat of arms is quartered. The upper left field contains the colors of the Vineta in light blue, white and black. To the right of it is a sailing ship, which refers to the SMS Vineta (1863) as well as to the maritime legend of the submerged Baltic city of Vineta . In the lower left field is the federal sign with two crossed basket bats in a laurel wreath and the date of foundation written in it. To the right of this is the circle with the letters V, C, F, V, which stand for Vivat, Crescat, Floreat, Vineta.
The knight's helmet with a royal crown is shown on the coat of arms. Three ostrich feathers in the colors of the connection and the correspondingly colored coat of arms were chosen as the crest.
Colours
The colors of the Vineta are light blue - white - black. The color goes back to the connection between the Vineta and the sea. Light blue like the sky, white like the spray and black like the depth of the sea.
Boys wear a light blue, white, and black ribbon with a silver percussion. Foxes do not wear a fox ribbon. A blue cap is worn.
