The Leipzig fraternity Dresdensia is a dutiful and color-bearing student union at the University of Leipzig . The fraternity was founded in 1853.

history

On May 12, 1853, three pupils from the St. Afra convent school from Dresden and five former Kreuzschulen from Dresden, who frequented the innkeeper Schneemann in Leipzig , founded the Dresdensia association with the motto : friendship - happiness - unity . In the winter semester of 1853/54 the statutes of the Dresdensia were approved by the university.

In November 1856, the Dresdensia was converted into a Landsmannschaft with the colors purple-white-orange. A circle was introduced with the meaning: vivat circulus dresdensiae . In 1857 Dresdensia joined the CC of the connections after they had promised to become all country teams and took on the colors purple-white-red.

Cartel relations existed with Gothia Königsberg , Teutonia Jena and Torgovia Halle . In the Schiller Year 1859, the university's 450th anniversary celebrations took place in Leipzig with a royal reception and a Kommers , and the Goths present received the Dresden ribbon as a token of their friendship. Negotiations about the entry of the Rugia Greifswald fraternity into the cartel came to nothing.

From 1861 there were fraternity endeavors, and the black, red and gold ribbon was also worn. The new motto was " Honor, Freedom, Fatherland ". In 1862, the Dresdensia Landsmannschaft changed into a fraternity. In the summer semester of 1864, Dresdensia participated in the founding of the Eisenacher Burschenbund, in the winter semester of 1874 the Eisenach Deputy Convent (EDC) and in the summer semester 1881 the General Deputy Convent (ADC) - the later German Burschenschaft (DB).

In July 1919, Dresdensia was involved in the establishment of the White Circle in the DB, with which the White Working Group was founded in the DB in May 1922 . On June 27, 1925, Dresdensia played a key role in founding the Old White Cartel. During the time of National Socialism , the Dresdensia fought against the synchronization of student associations, left the DB in November 1934 and participated in the founding of the Old Burschenschaft , which was in opposition to the National Socialist German Student Union (NSDStB). In 1936 the Dresdensia was banned and dissolved.

In the GDR , which was founded in 1949, student associations were generally prohibited for political reasons. In May 1951 the old boys of Dresdensia involved along with the also home sold Greifswald fraternity Rugia in Frankfurt am Main in the founding of the fraternity Dresdensia-Rugia that suspended in February 1969, in on 22 January 1972 casting was reconstituted, where it links into the revisionist and right-wing extremist scene.

On June 13, 2015, the Dresdensia was re-donated and has since had one floor in the Gohlis district of Leipzig .
