history

Hansea Circle on the Wels

The Landsmannschaft Hansea auf dem Wels was created through the merger of the three Munich Landsmannschaft Hannovera auf dem Wels, Hansea and Schyria.

After the merger of the three Landsmannschaften on February 3, 1951, the Landsmannschaft Hansea auf dem Wels took over the colors of the Schyria, the name of the Hansea and the addition of the Hannovera auf dem Wels.

The founding date is July 17, 1853, that of the oldest of the three corporations, namely that of the Hannovera auf dem Wels, which was founded on that day as the North German Student Society on the Wels in Erlangen and was recognized and officially registered under this date.

Hannovera on the Wels

The Welsgarten on the Erlanger Burgberg, 1797

The addition to the name “auf dem Wels” comes from the princely Thurn & Taxischer Hofkammerrat and postmaster Johann Heinrich Wels. In 1798 he was granted the concession to build a fully licensed establishment on the Burgberg near Erlangen . From then on, North German students met there, who formed the forerunner of the Hannovera auf dem Wels.

A loose association of North German students in Erlangen was first mentioned in the same year. Although this had its own colors and circles, it was made up of members of various country teams . On July 17, 1853, the officially registered North German Student Society on the Wels was founded from this union . Only since then has it been described as an independent corporation.

The North German student society took from 1882 to the first non-publicly funded colors green, white and red. Since January 23, 1890 and the adoption of the name Hannovera auf dem Wels , these were also worn publicly together with green hats. In 1895 the Bund had to be adjourned, but on July 19, 1907 it was reopened as a Landsmannschaft in the Coburg Landsmannschafter Convent (CLC). After the First World War, Hannovera took up the former VC connection Lotharingia to Munich on the Wels .

In the course of the ban on student associations by the Nazi regime, Hannovera had to be suspended on the Wels in 1936.

Hansea

The founding boys of the academic table society, 1891

On November 16, 1891, the academic table society Lumpia with the colors gray-white-brown was founded at the University of Karlsruhe . Initially founded as a humorous allusion to student fraternities, it took on the name Libertas in 1900 and from 1905 carried its own color and acquired its own weapons. In 1907 the Libertas merged with the Academic Association Hansea to form the Landsmannschaft Hansea , but kept the original rag colors. From 1908 to 1919 Hansea belonged to the General Landsmannschafter Convent on the Marksburg (ALC), but then joined the German Landsmannschaft (DL).

On November 9, 1924, it then moved to Munich with the new colors of steel blue, white and wine red, where it was also banned in 1936 and had to stop operating.

Shyria

On November 4, 1896, the "South German Student Union" registered at the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich , which emerged from the Algovia Kneipverband, which had only recently been founded. In the same semester, the colors green-silver-black were worn, and the classification system was introduced and the name “South German student union Schyria” was adopted. The name Schyria is derived from the ancestral castle of the Wittelsbach family in Scheyern . From the summer of 1899, Schyria took the addition of "Free Landsmannschaft" in its name and was accepted on May 25, 1910 in the Coburg Landsmannschaften Convent (CLC). During the First World War, Schyria had to cease operations due to a lack of members, but resumed it after the end of the war. As early as autumn 1935, Schyria was negotiating a merger with Hansea, but this was rejected by the German Landsmannschaft. In the summer of 1936, the active Schyria country team was forcibly dissolved.

Comradeship Hochberg

After fraternities were banned in 1936, many corporations were expropriated or had to sell their houses. In order to save their fortune and at the same time to be able to preserve the old traditions, many connections to so-called comradeships formed in the National Socialist German Student Union ( NSDStB ). In these, the convention principle, outlawed by the National Socialists, and the wearing of colors could be continued to live. The old gentlemen's associations of the Landsmannschaften Hannovera auf dem Wels, Hansea and Schyria came together to form the Hochberg comradeship , which existed until the end of the Second World War.

Hansea on the catfish

After the general ban on student associations issued by the Allied military government was lifted in 1950, the Landsmannschaft Hansea auf dem Wels was founded on February 3, 1951 and joined the Coburg Convent of Landsmannschaften and Turnerschaften (CC).

On December 7, 1952, the old rulers of the adjourned Saxo-Borussia team in Leipzig were included in the Hansea auf dem Wels team, which acted as sponsors.

In 1990/91 Hansea auf dem Wels took over the presidency of the Coburg Convent and was able to welcome the reconstituted leagues from the former GDR back to the association.
