history

Corphaus in Burgstr. 41

The corps was founded on November 6, 1836 at Friedrichs University and is thus the second oldest active student association in Halle an der Saale after the Corps Guestphalia Halle and its backdate . In the first few decades Borussia was strongly influenced by Protestant theologians. The conservative Prussian court preacher Adolf Stoecker was one of the most prominent representatives .

Like all corps, the Prussians initially pubs in changing inns in Halle. The closer amalgamation of the old rulers made it possible in 1887 to purchase their first own corp house , which, when it no longer met the demands of active operations, was replaced by a new building in Burgstrasse designed to meet the needs of the corps. The new house was inaugurated on August 3, 1906 on the occasion of the 70th foundation festival.

Borussia was one of the five corps that refused , in the summer of 1934, to exclude “ Jewish people ” as required by the provisions of the Allgemeine Deutsche Waffenring . She was therefore excluded from the KSCV and was then suspended from June 12 to October 14, 1934 . In the course of the dissolution of the corps associations and most of the other active corps in October 1935, the final suspension took place on October 11, 1935. The old gentlemen's association continued and supported the establishment of the Halle SC comradeship " Gustav Nachtigal ".

Since a revival in the GDR was not possible, after the Second World War Borussia initially participated in the foundation of Halle's successor corps Saxonia in Frankfurt am Main . On November 6, 1955, the independent reconstitution as a corps at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and entry into the Mainz Seniors' Convention took place .

After the so-called reunification , the corps returned to Halle in November 1991, where a new corps house was bought at Ernst-König-Strasse 10 .
