The Corps Saxonia Halle was a corps in the Kösener Seniors Convents Association (KSCV). Founded in 1802, it was one of the oldest student associations in Germany until its final suspension in 1896.

history

As early as 1717, country teams in Halle (Saale) can be identified with different colored badges for their different regions of origin. Initially, these existed alongside the student orders and some country teams were also closely linked to one of the orders.

This development changed in 1789 when the Westphalian wreath sharply demarcated itself from its previous order and even forbade its members to be a member of an order at the same time. The authorities, who had long been a thorn in the side of the medals, welcomed this development and sponsored the small wreaths, which at that time could publicly hold Kommerse , in which professors also took part.

Little wreaths of the Magdeburg and Halberstadt residents

During this time, on June 7th, 1792 the Magdeburg wreath was founded with the colors green and white. In the following year, from around Christmas, people from Halberstadt were also accepted, but they left around February 1795 and shortly afterwards became self-employed on May 21, 1795 with the colors red and white. Presumably there was a semi-urban wreath before 1793, but this has not yet been confirmed. It is also unclear whether the colors green-red were used at the time of the unification.

At the same time, the Magdeburg citizens also took in Saxony . In the cartel points, which date from the period between 1799 and 1801, the Magdeburgers are assigned the areas of Magdeburg, Mansfeld , Saxony and the Franconian Empire and the Halberstadt-based Halberstadt, Quedlinburg , Wernigerode , Hohenstein , Braunschweig , Hildesheim , Mühlhausen im Vogtland (Bad Elster) , Nordhausen and Goslar as recruiting areas.

After the medals were largely pushed back, the authorities began to pursue the previously sponsored wreaths. So it happened that on November 3, 1801, the members were promised an amnesty in the event of voluntary disclosure. The wreaths bowed, reported their membership numbers and were finally banned on January 26, 1802. The Magdeburg wreath reported 33 members at the time, the Halberstadt 20.

Foundation and first years 1802–1813

Halle Saxons (1803)

The wreaths were not deterred by the ban and soon continued to exist. The Magdeburg and Halberstadt reunited on June 21, 1802 to form Saxonia. Their colors merged into green-red-white, they chose “Fide, sed cui vide!” (Latin: “Dare, look who!”) As their motto and “Amico pectus, hosti cuspidem!” (Latin. “To the friend.”) the heart, the enemy the bat! ”). It would be possible that Magdeburgers and Halberstädter merged to form a Magdeburg-Halberstädter wreath before the Saxonia foundation.

As a result of the duel near Reideburg on March 13, 1803, another investigation was initiated against the Kränzchen. The axis Kahmann, who had itself participated in the duel was to ten years imprisonment sentenced from which he adopted later seven. That is probably why Saxonia broke up for a short time. But already in the SC-Comment , which dates from before September 10, 1803, the student L. Thielebein signed as "qua senior of the Saxon Landsmannschaft". The founding date of August 3, 1804, which Saxonia maintained until 1960, can no longer be explained today, as later entries in the registry from 1805 and 1806 also show the old date of 1802. These also bear witness to the fact that the old colors green-red-white were still worn in 1804 and were not changed back then to dark blue-white-light blue (from below). The investigations by the university authorities that took place after the duel have given us the laws of Saxonia that were submitted at the time. Although an interrogated Saxon admitted that there were other laws, we learn something from them about the structure of the wreaths at that time.

The following years were less marked by persecution. Instead, based on the diaries of Joseph von Eichendorff, it almost seems as if the wreaths had a completely public appearance. After Napoleon Bonaparte dissolved the University of Halle on October 19, 1806, student life also disappeared from the city. Saxonia can be proven again shortly after the university reopened at Easter 1808. This evidence is provided by letters from the Hallenser SC to the Kränzchen at the University of Helmstedt , in which the Halle residents reproach the Helmstedt residents for having disbanded under pressure from the authorities. When the University of Helmstedt was closed in May 1810, numerous students came to Halle from there. Among them was the student Oelze, who had been a member of the Saxon Kränzchen in Helmstedt as early as 1808 and tensions arose between him, his followers and the Halle Kränzchen, which culminated in Oelze teasing the authorities. This so-called Oelze scandal led to extensive investigations again and Saxonia had to disband. However, it was reconstituted on August 28, 1810 and existed from then until the university was dissolved again at the beginning of the Wars of Liberation at Easter 1813.

After the wars of liberation

After the first students returned to Halle in 1814, the Kränzchen, enthusiastic about the common liberation struggle, formed the first Halle Teutonia on January 11, 1814. As a result of numerous scandals, Teutonia was dissolved again by the authorities in 1817, but it continued to exist in secret until it was dissolved on November 14, 1819.

From 1819 the old country teams reappeared and on November 14, 1820 Saxonia was also reconstituted. Since the old colors were meanwhile occupied by a Thuringia, the Saxony colors already used in Leipzig and Jena were taken over in the order dark blue-white-light blue read from below with silver percussion. Saxonia Halle had had a relationship with Saxonia Jena since 1812, and a cartel was closed shortly after the reconstitution . During the same period there was also a cartel with Saxonia Leipzig . In November 1820 the “General Constitution of the Halleschen Landsmannschaften” was passed by the wreaths Saxonia, Thuringia, Marchia and Pomerania , in which Saxonia is recognized as the oldest.

After the country teams were officially dissolved again in the summer semester of 1821, the students moved to the Broyhahnschenke near Ammendorf on February 7, 1822 in a biblically parodying style to protest against the arbitrariness of the government commissioner von Witzleben. Around this time Saxonia was also reconstituted and in the following year there were serious disputes within the SC, in which Saxonia was isolated from the other country teams. The General Senior Citizens' Convention, founded on March 4, 1821 between Jena, Leipzig and Halle, was asked to mediate and the conflict could be resolved. While Erich Bauer founded the Sileso-Borussia Foundation with the departure of some Saxons as a result of the disputes, Robert Soppa is more likely that Saxonia founded a second corps with Sileso-Borussia in order not to stand alone against the others in the future. This is supported not only by the fact that the founders continued to be included in the Saxonia corps list, but also that the foundation was only established after the conflict at the General Seniors' Convention had been resolved.

For Saxonia, the period up to 1827 was marked by prohibitions and persecution by the authorities. In any case, it is certain that it was reconstituted on June 28, 1827 and probably existed until 1834. Revived again on January 25, 1836, as the cartel had suspended Saxonia Jena, one closed with Franconia Jena in the summer of 1837 . However, like the cartel with Saxonia Leipzig, it broke up again only a few days after it was closed due to an incident during a carousing at the Rudelsburg.

Since January 1836, Saxonia Halle had its own beer state based on the Jena model. The Bumsia Hall probably goes back to the Bumsia, which was founded in 1829 - but not yet belonged to any special corporation - which Hanns Freydank describes in detail. Until when this beer state existed is unclear.

Saxonia suspended again on August 5, 1841 and reconstituted almost a year later on August 3, 1842.

In 1844, a General Convent (AC) was established with the involvement of non-corporates, which forced the formation of new wreaths with a progressist orientation. When the General Convent introduced the relative compulsion to duel , which left it up to the insulted person whether he wanted to get satisfaction with the weapon or through a court of honor , the Halle SC split in 1846. The conservative corps Marchia, Guestphalia and Thuringia, which stood on the principle of unconditional satisfaction, left the AC and formed their own senior citizens' convent. The Corps Borussia and Pomerania found themselves together with the Kränzchen of the Altmärker and Franconians in the General Convention.

Saxonia was reconstituted after a renewed suspension on January 13, 1845, almost exactly a year later on January 14, 1846, but went back in less than a month later on February 7. When a reconstitution succeeded again on August 2, 1848, Saxonia initially also sided with the Progress, but was the trigger for the dissolution of the AC on November 11, 1848. Pomerania had switched sides before; Thuringia had disbanded. The split of the SC initially persisted: the Corps Marchia, Pomerania and Guestphalia faced the progressist Corps Borussia, Palaiomarchia , Saxonia and the Cheruscia , which emerged from a Naumburg wreath in 1848, and the Franconia, which emerged from the Lapponia wreath . On December 4, 1848, both parties declared each other in disrepute, and negotiations between the two sides did not resume until July 1849. After Borussia had already joined the old SC on November 5, 1849, Saxonia followed on January 18, 1850. Cheruscia and Franconia dissolved. Palaiomarchia was reciprocated in the SC on December 7, 1850 as the last corps of the split period.

In the following decades, Saxonia was again suspended from May 9 to November 22, 1851 and from May 2, 1864 to July 27, 1891. After the last reconstitution, Saxonia was mainly supported by its cartel corps Saxonia Jena. It finally had to cease active operations on November 7, 1896.

Corps Saxonia Frankfurt am Main and Konstanz

After the Second World War, Saxonia Halle supported the joint foundation of the Corps Saxonia Frankfurt by joining its members. The Halle Corps Guestphalia, Borussia, Neoborussia and Teutonia , as well as the Strasbourg Corps Palaio-Alsatia originally planned to reconstitute the Saxonia Halle as a common successor to all Halle Corps. In the course of the negotiations, however, there were misunderstandings with the Saxons who were still living in Halle, so that the idea in favor of a new foundation was rejected. With its name and colors, however, Saxonia Frankfurt, founded on December 10, 1949, makes direct reference to Saxonia Halle. Later, the Saxons from Halle, who were still alive, agreed to recognize Saxonia as a reconstitution and subsequently gave them all the powers that had not previously been used. Later on, Palaio-Alsatia (1953), Borussia (1955) and Guestphalia (1956) left the corps association and went their own way in Frankfurt am Main (1954), Mainz (1956) and Münster (1958). Saxonia Frankfurt had to suspend in 1972 due to problems with young talent from the 1968 movement . After two failed attempts in Trier and Regensburg , reconstitution at the University of Konstanz succeeded in the 1984/85 winter semester . The help of the local elderly gentlemen's senior citizens' convention was decisive . Saxonia Konstanz is the youngest corps in the black circle of the KSCV. The "New Saxons" include Gerd Schaefer-Rolffs , Hans Breuer , Hans-Günther Weber , Knut Teske , Eckhart Dietrich and Wolfgang Herr . One of the bearers of the Teutonic and Saxony bands was Karl Rembert (1868–1966). With Ernst Biesalski he had presented Teutonia's corps history in 1913.
