history

Founding years

In 1831 the higher trade school was opened in Hanover. This was converted into a polytechnic in 1847 and elevated to a technical university in 1875 . In 1891 the first fraternity in Hanover was founded , the Hanover fraternity Germania . In order to broaden the basis for a successful work in the sense of the fraternity idea, the Teutons tried since the winter semester 1896/97 to bring a second fraternity into being. This project only succeeded in the summer of 1898. Five members or former members of the Germania fraternity joined forces on June 25, 1898 with a previously single black association Frankonia to form the Arminia fraternity.

The colors at that time were blue-red-gold, the hat was blue with red and gold stripes. The motto was: Honor, Freedom, Fatherland! . The general coat of arms of the fraternity was adopted as the coat of arms. In the winter semester 1898/99, the colors were changed to today's.

House of HB! Arminia

After the Arminia fraternity moved into a room in the Nordstädter Gesellschaftshaus in Oberstraße in 1898, moved to the Kriegerheim in Nikolaistraße in 1900, and finally moved to the upper floor of Escherstraße 3 from 1903 onwards, this was possible in 1912 House Oeltzenstrasse 22 was acquired for 50,000 gold marks , which was inaugurated on March 1, 1913.

On July 4, 1920, a working group of alliances in the Rüdesheim Association of German Fraternities (RVdB) was founded on the Arminia house , from which the Rheinische Ring emerged shortly afterwards .

In the Third Reich

The federal government was not very critical of the increasing influence of National Socialism . As early as 1925, Armine Fritz Hilgenstock appeared as the “decisive agitator” of an anti-Semitic student “combat committee” that expelled the Jewish professor Theodor Lessing from the Hanover University. On May 10, 1933, the batches and all local members took part in the book burning in Hanover . Armines Martin Bruckmann and Fritz Hilgenstock, as functionaries of the German Student Union (DSt) and the German Burschenschaft (DB), played a key role in their restructuring in line with National Socialism. Hilgenstock was also an initiator of the University Political Working Group (Hopoag).

After the dissolution of the German Burschenschaft on October 18, 1935 and its incorporation into the NSDStB , the HB was formed in 1937! Arminia, the Comradeship IX in the imposed student union, called herself Kameradschaft Tiemeyer for a short time and finally received the name Kameradschaft Freiherr vom Stein at her own request .

The HB! On her website today, Arminia speaks of the Nazi regime as an “intolerant, authoritarian regime”.

After the Second World War

On March 30, 1947, the student association for technology and culture was established on the Arminenhaus - which had not remained undamaged . In June 1950, the federal government again took on the name of the Hannoversche Burschenschaft Arminia after the Allied laws that had hindered this had been repealed. On February 27, 1951, the federal government decided to join the re-established German Burschenschaft (DB).

Under the influence of the political development towards the end of the 1960s , the Arminia took a critical look at fraternity traditions and thus came into conflict with the German fraternity several times. In 1970 this led to a forced suspension vis-à-vis the association because of the abandonment of the mandatory principle . The following year the optional principle was introduced in the DB and the suspension was lifted. In 1974, the federal government demanded a relaxation of the admission requirements in order to enable conscientious objectors to become members of the DB fraternities. At the Boys' Day in 1976, another suspension was pronounced for a year after representatives of the Arminia demanded a political demarcation of the association to the right.

Within the German Burschenschaft, the federal government participated in several working groups , including the Hambacher Kreis , the working group Marburg founded on May 3, 2002 at their house, and the Burschenschaftliche Zukunft initiative (IBZ) .

Due to the persistently differing views on the interpretation of the fraternity's basic values, Arminia left the DB on November 27, 2012. In 2016 she joined the Association of General German Burschenschaft as a founding member .
