history
The Corps Suevia was founded on December 16, 1803 by students at the University of Landshut , making it one of the oldest German student associations. When the university moved to Munich in 1826, Suevia also moved. It is the oldest student association in Munich.
As a representative of the Munich Seniors Convent (SC), the Corps co-founded the Kösener Seniors Convents Association (KSCV) in 1848 , but only ratified its membership in 1862. Three times - 1877, 1978 and 1979 - Suevia was the chairman of the oKC . The Corps also supported the founding of the Association of Old Corps Students (VAC) in 1888 and appointed the royal Bavarian Justice Minister Ferdinand Ritter von Miltner as its first chairman. However , the Philistine of the Corps did not join the association founded at the suggestion of Kaiser Wilhelm II and the Reich Chancellor Prince Otto von Bismarck until years later.
In 1875 Suevia founded a “Philistine Fund”, a fund made up of contributions from the old men . A corp house association was founded in 1880 with the aim of buying a house for the corps so that the constant move from pub to pub would come to an end. First a house at Adelgundenstrasse 33-35 was rented in 1889 , which was then bought in 1896. This made Suevia the first corps in Munich with its own house. This house was used by the Corps until 1925.
Together with other corps, Suevia Munich significantly promoted the entry of the Austrian corps into the KSCV from 1898 and finally achieved the final admission of all Austrian corps in 1919.
After the sale of the corp house in Adelgundenstrasse, the corps acquired a new house in Munich-Bogenhausen in 1925, called "Edelmesse" or "Lauer-Villa". When the house was threatened with expropriation in 1939, the Corps sold the property again.
In May 1934, the Corps Suevia Munich, together with four other corps, refused to comply with the umbrella organization's demand for the exclusion of its (so-called “non-Aryan”) corps brothers who were married to Jewish wives. These demands were made on the basis of the Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service of April 1933. Three members of the corps were affected by the decision. With the rejection (decision of the Philistine Convention of May 5, 1934), the Corps followed the principle that actually applies to all student associations, despite the threat of state sanctions, that the (full) membership once awarded can only be revoked from a member on the basis of serious misconduct.
From 1939 the corps could no longer maintain an official active operation. In order to keep the traditions of the corps at least covertly during the time of the National Socialist tyranny, some old men joined the comradeship “Prinz Eugen” of the NSDStB , which used the premises of the corp house. From 1940 onwards, the comradeship, which was initially entirely in the sun of the NSDStB, began to take on corporate features. In the winter semester of 1943/44, she also fought classification gauges. The students of the comradeship, who forbidden to beat one or more gauges during the Third Reich or who had “fought” at least one after the war, were therefore subsequently accepted as members of the corps in 1948.
In 1951, at Suevia's request, the Bavarian Senior Curtze founded the only joint, independent senior citizens' convent Kösener, Weinheimer and the free corps at universities in Germany and Austria. The Munich Seniors Convent (MSC) with 18 (+4 affiliated) corps is the largest local association of student associations in Germany.
A new corp house was acquired in 1958 at Werneckstrasse 6 in Munich-Schwabing and rebuilt by 1960. The Corps has its headquarters here to this day.
Due to the structure of its relationships with other corps, the Corps Suevia is counted as part of the " Black Circle " within the KSCV and is a member of the Eisenach cartel .
