Since the reconstitution in the winter semester of 2002, Rhaetia has been based in Augsburg.

history

Scale between an "Etscher" ( Corps Athesia Innsbruck ) and a Rhaetier (1863)

In 1859, students from the Leopold-Franzens University founded the Corps Rhaetia, which in 1862 formed a senior citizens' convention with the Corps Athesia Innsbruck . The Corps Gothia Innsbruck was added later. The first racket gauges were fought by the rhaetians in Munich and Göttingen as gunsmen in the local corps. The first scale length on Innsbruck soil was held in 1862. She was the contrahage of a rhaetier fox with a Prague Franconian who was passing through with thugs in his suitcase and was looking for a junk . In 1863, Rhaetia took over the tradition of the suspended Innsbruck Corps Chinesia. In 1865 the three Innsbruck Corps celebrated the first common Kommers , at which the Tyrolean poet Adolf Pichler gave the speech.

Joined the KSCV

In contrast to Gothia and Athesia, Rhaetia stayed away from the Kösener SC Association at the turn of the century. The suspended Corps Chinesia was taken over by Rhaetia as a traditional corps under the new name Chattia in 1914. Since then, the band can be awarded to well-deserved rhaetians. In 1919 the corps was accepted into the Kösener Seniors Convents Association, for which Alfred Wieser and Gustav Gotthilf Winkel were particularly committed. In the time after the First World War , several corps members fought in the Freikorps Oberland in Upper Silesia , among them Ernst Rüdiger Starhemberg . The exiled Corps Austria from Prague was granted the right to stay for one semester in 1919 before moving to Frankfurt a. M. moved. Like the other Innsbruck corps, Rhaetia was shaped by many "Reich German" members, especially through double membership with corps of the blue circle . In contrast to the other two Innsbruck corps, Rhaetia had no relationship with any comradeship after the annexation of Austria . The corps as a whole was disbanded.

post war period

1951 could be reconstituted with the help of Cologne Frisians and Isars. The first two decades went well into the 1970s. At the end of the 1980s it had to be suspended again due to a lack of active members. As the only Kösener Corps in Austria to date , Rhaetia relocated its active operations to Germany and reconstituted it at the University of Augsburg in 2002 . In 2003 she received the rights of a senior citizens' convention .
