history

Founded in Strasbourg in 1882

On May 1, 1872, the Kaiser Wilhelm University in Strasbourg was re-established. There were also four representatives of the Cartell Association (CV) among the numerous corporation members and corporation board members who were present at the university opening. In 1872 the CV included the connections Aenania Munich , Winfridia Breslau , Guestfalia Tübingen , Markomannia Würzburg and Alsatia Münster under the suburb of Austria Innsbruck . Bavaria Bonn , in the CV since 1865, had been suspended in the summer semester of 1867 due to internal difficulties.

Of the six existing CV connections at the time, three were officially represented at the university celebrations:

After the first failed attempts to found a CV association in Strasbourg in 1872, the constituent founding assembly and the first Badenia convention finally took place on May 25, 1882. On June 8, 1882, Badenia was approved as a student association by the rector of the University of Strasbourg.

On August 3, 1883, Badenia was recommended to the CV for support at the 19th Cartel meeting in Freiburg im Breisgau. Initially, the application to include Badenia in the CV was rejected. A second request for assistance was accepted. On February 28, 1884, Badenia was initially included in the CV as a free association, and on September 3, 1885, it was accepted as a full member.

In 1905, Badenia took over the CV suburb for the first time. In the same year, the subsidiary with the current name KDStV Rappoltstein (Strasbourg) Cologne was founded in Strasbourg.

Badenia believed that by dividing or establishing a second CV corporation, it would improve the chances for CV in Strasbourg. The subsidiary was proclaimed at the final convention of the winter semester of 1904/05. Rappoltstein was chosen as the name, taken from the old knight family of the Rappoltsteiner . Their colors became: sky blue-red-silver. The colors red and silver are taken from the coat of arms of the Lords of Rappoltstein. The color light blue refers to the Bavarian noble house Wittelsbach (amalgamation between Alsace and old Germany). “Treu und Tru!” Was chosen as the motto.

At the Cartell Assembly, which took place in Regensburg from August 17 to 25, 1904, Badenia was elected as a suburb in 1905/06.

Time in Frankfurt 1919–1936

The Versailles Peace Treaty sealed Germany's defeat and ordered Alsace-Lorraine to be ceded to France.

The University of Frankfurt was founded in 1914. Thus, this university was still a young university. The KDStV Hasso-Nassovia Frankfurt am Main was until 1918 the only CV connection in Frankfurt. The main reason for moving to Frankfurt, however, was that when the city of Strasbourg became French, the university could no longer be reached by Germans and Frankfurt took over both the library and the student rights and obligations of the University of Strasbourg. When Badenia moved to Frankfurt in 1918, it did not have a fraternity house. Thus the Wertheim am Römer became the primary domicile of the Federal Brethren.

On November 16, 1919, the Cumulative Convent (CC) decided to change its name to Strasbourg KDStV Badenia in Frankfurt am Main .

In 1933 a house was bought on Schuberstrasse in Frankfurt, but it shouldn't be enjoyed for too long. When the Nazis came to power in the same year, they tried to integrate all connections into the National Socialist German Student Union . Despite the strongest opposition from the CV, one had to capitulate in 1938: the connections were broken. So people met underground with friends and took the name “Circle of Friends of Former Badeners” as a cover.

Time in Frankfurt from 1945

On September 28, 1946, the Badenia old gentlemen's association was re-established. In February 1947 the first Fux was reciprocated after the end of the Second World War . By expropriating the house in 1936 (it went to Caritas ) one received compensation after the Second World War. However, this was not enough to be able to buy a new house immediately. This made the Börsenkeller the first point of contact for the Federal Brothers.

In 1962 a house in Frankfurt's Marbachweg was acquired, and in the same year Badenia took over the CV suburb.

The 100th foundation festival of the Strasbourg KDStV Badenia in Frankfurt am Main was celebrated from June 17 to 21, 1982.

Color

Badenia has the colors "green-white-blue" with silver percussion. A striker or a stiff flat cap is worn for this. Foxes are initially given a band with blue on a white background with silver percussion. The Badeniae motto is “ Robore et valore! “(Latin for“ Through external strength and internal strength ”).
