history

1912

The union emerged from the short-lived Austro-Borussia connection and was founded on December 1, 1864 as a compatriot at the Silesian Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität . On November 3, 1868, she was accepted as the fourth corps in the Senior Citizens' Convention in Breslau . The corpsman colors are red-white-black, the fox colors red-white-red on silver percussion . The motto is Honestis honorem, fidelibus fidem, violentis vim!

In 1884 and 1903 Marcomannia appointed Rufin Reichert and Friedrich Töpffer as chairman of the oKC. Marcomannia soon broke off a friendship relationship with the Corps Hansea Königsberg that had been agreed in the winter semester of 1878/79 . In 1902, thanks to Ernst Mendrzyk and many traffic guests , she entered an interview with the Corps Masovia Königsberg . When the so-called district policy in the KSCV regained special importance after the First World War and Marcomannia tended towards the red circle , the CC of Masovia unanimously dissolved the relationship on September 24, 1919. Since 1910, Marcomannia had its own corp house at Kirschenallee 30 in Breslau . In the era of National Socialism , she had, like all Corps on November 4, 1935 suspended .

Although Marcomannia was a corps at the University of Breslau, since the foundation of the Technical University of Wroclaw (1910), like the three other corps in the SC zu Breslau, she had numerous members who studied engineering . In order to continue this tradition, she was reconstituted after the Second World War on December 1, 1952 at the University of Cologne and RWTH Aachen University . The Corps Silesia had already taken this step on December 7, 1950, the Corps Borussia Breslau on October 9, 1951. The Corps Lusatia Breslau followed on July 27, 1956. The entire Breslau Seniors 'Convent existed as part of the Cologne Seniors' Convent at two universities. This fact - a corps operation in two locations with two corps houses - is unique in the history of corps students. Active operations in Aachen were given up in 1965. As the last corps in 2001, Borussia Breslau gave up the attempt to run an active business at two university locations at the same time, and sold their house in Cologne.

Wins

At the University-Polytechnic victories were in 1992 four fraternities : three fraternities - one in BDIC , one in the DB , a free - and an original in TCV beheimateter Wingolf . On May 23, 1992, Marcomannia opened a branch in Siegen . This step was made possible by the help of the Old Men Seniors Convent Siegen (chairman: Klaus Gerstein) and inactive people from the Corps Baltica-Borussia Danzig zu Bielefeld and Franconia Karlsruhe . After Aachen gave up, students of technical subjects could become Marcomannen again. In ten semesters renoncierten seven foxes, five of which recipiert were. When only an inactive person and a fox were left, the FCC decided on November 23, 1996 to give up the expensive apartment at Zwischenweg 5 on March 31, 1997.

Langeoog

Marcomannenhang

For decades, many Marcomanni helped their corps brother Jürgen von Schilling with the planting of the Langeoog dune cemetery .

Suspension and fusion

The last CC report from Marcomannia is dated December 1, 2004. On that day, some Marcomannia were philistically and inactivated. The subsequent corps inventory shows no active members. Marcomannia suspended at the end of 2004. In 2010, Marcomannia-Breslau sold its corp house in Cologne and concluded a traditional relationship with the Corps Borussia in Tübingen . The basic agreement for the merger of the two corps was signed on October 20, 2018. The merger took effect on January 1, 2019.

Relative Corps
