The Landsmannschaft Zaringia Heidelberg is an obligatory and colored student union in the Coburg Convent . It is an association of students and graduates .

history

Today's Landsmannschaft Zaringia emerged from a merger of the original Zaringia with the connections Cheruskia and Vandalia.

Origins

Zaringia Heidelberg

Zaringia was founded in the winter semester of 1882/83 as the “Tischgesellschaft Pfalz- Kraichgau ” in the “Essighaus” in Heidelberg. On February 8, 1888, the “Kraichgauer Gesellschaft” was established under the name “Zaringia” as a striking connection with the colors red-white- light blue , whereupon in 1903 they became a member of the Coburg Landsmannschafter Convent. The patron saint of the connection is the noble family of the Zähringer . In honor of this family, it was decided to use the compound name “Zaringia”.

Cheruskia Heidelberg

Cheruskia emerged from the " New Philological Association", which was constituted on November 19, 1880. With the choice of the colors red, black and gold, the name "Cheruskia" was given in 1894 and from the summer semester of 1904 it was called "Scientific Association Cheruskia". The first scales were struck from 1906, two years later it was decided to convert to a Landsmannschaft with the Heidelberg city colors black-gold-green, again a year later the membership in the Coburg Landsmannschafter Convent took place.

Vandalia Wroclaw

As the original “Pharmaceutical Association” at the University of Wroclaw, Vandalia has also made its way from a scientific association to a weapons student corporation. Founded in 1859, the association soon sought the status of a student association with the colors blue-red-green. In 1887, the name "Vandalia" was adopted and the association was established. Four years later he was accepted into the Coburg Landsmannschafter Convent. Shortly before 1914, the colors were changed and from then on they wore blue, red and white ribbons with green percussion.

Mergers

The Vandalia merged in 1925 with the German-Academic Association Baltia. The now yellow percussion of the vandal band and the Baltic cross , which was added to the national coat of arms, were considered to be signs of the merger .

In 1919, the two compatriots Zaringia and Cheruskia merged in Heidelberg.

The “white” became the “green” Zaringia, because the new covenant took over the ribbon and cap as well as the date of foundation and the covenant song from the old Cheruskia. In the summer semester of 1919, the new Landsmannschaft acquired the house at Schloßberg 9, on the first floor of which Zaringia, as a long-term tenant, had already enjoyed residence rights for more than two decades and which is still owned by the federal government.

Vandalia, who had moved into her second house in Breslau a few years earlier, dissolved itself in 1936, as did Zaringia in Heidelberg, in order not to have to join the National Socialist German student union. In order to survive, both groups opened their houses to a National Socialist comradeship (in Heidelberg it was called "Kurpfalz", in Breslau "Lützow").

After meeting again for the first time in May 1948, the 90th foundation festival was celebrated in Heidelberg a year later, which was to become the new home of the “Landsmannschaft Vandalia-Breslau zu Heidelberg”.

At the same time, Zaringia was also reconstituted. There, too, there had been a similar collection campaign to dare to start again.

Zaringia and Vandalia have spent the years since 1949 in close proximity. Vandalia initially acquired its third corporate house on Handschuhsheimer Landstrasse in Heidelberg in 1955.

The close ties between the two fraternities ultimately resulted in a merger, which was carried out on October 22, 1983 on a joint commision. Since then, the former vandals have been wearing the colors and hats of the Zaringia in their old color.

Surname

Zaringia is the Latinized form of the name of the princely family of the Zähringer . The full name of the Landsmannschaft Zaringia is "Landsmannschaft Zaringia Heidelberg united with Vandalia Breslau zu Heidelberg in the Coburg Convent of the Academic Landsmannschaft and Gymnastics Association at German Universities" . The members as well as the whole corporation are called "Die Zähringer" .

Color

The Landsmannschaft Zaringia, based on the Heidelberg city coat of arms, wears the colors black-gold-green with golden percussion as a boys' band . The fox band is gold-green - also with gold percussion.

The Zähringer team wear a dark green student hat in Heidelberg format with black, gold and green percussion.

Since the merger with the Landsmannschaft Vandalia Breslau zu Heidelberg in 1983 , the batches have been wearing the blue-red-white Vandalen-Band as a traditional band with silver percussion above and yellow percussion below, as have the former members of the Landsmannschaft Vandalia. Furthermore, one may wear the ribbon if, as a boy, one has struck a voluntary pulling , additional part on the ribbon.

Gun ring and motto

The Zähringer beat their two compulsory grades in the weapon ring of the Heidelberg Interest Group for Compulsory Connections (HIG). The specialty of the second game is that it has to be fought "deep". If a game cannot be found in the HIG, games outside of it are searched for due to membership in the Andernach working group , which means that games with Kösener connections are beaten.

A Pro-Patria-Suite and a personal contract is currently not permitted ( statutes ).

The motto is: "Amico pectus, hosti frontem"! (German: "The chest of the friend , the forehead of the enemy !")

Zähringerhaus

First, in 1898, only the first floor of what was then Diemerei was rented as a constant . As a corporation house, the house at Schloßberg 9 in Heidelberg's old town has been owned by Zaringia since 1919 . It houses 7 activity rooms. In 2014, renovations mainly of the exterior facade were completed for around 1.3 million euros.

External relations

Zaringia is part of the Triple Alliance with the Landsmannschaft Spandovia zu Berlin and the Landsmannschaft Darmstadtia zu Gießen within the Coburg Convent .

Legal dispute over a photo

In 2005 members of the association sued against the use of a photo taken by the Rhein-Neckar-Zeitung while reporting on the Zaringia’s 125th Foundation Festival Comer on election posters, postcards and e-cards of the Baden-Württemberg Greens . The Heidelberg Greens had acquired the rights, but were subject to the process before the Heidelberg district court. The plaintiffs obtained that her face had to be blackened from now on. The also sued parliamentary group of the Greens in Baden-Württemberg then offered to immediately stop their national advertising, including cinema advertising films and eCards. The photo showed the guest of honor and speaker Günther Oettinger , Prime Minister of the State of Baden-Württemberg , and Chargiert of the Zähringer as well as 16 other student associations .
