history

From 1957 to 1959 a coal shed in Senftenberg was converted into a sports hall. The inauguration of the sports hall was on October 31, 1959. The then largest self-supporting hall in Europe was named Aktivist . The first competitions took place on natural ground. During renovations in 1971/72, a tartan surface was laid in the sports hall, and the curves were raised during this construction work. The wooden arch roof structure was renewed in 1976/77 and replaced by a steel structure. The sports hall was sponsored by the Brown Coal Combine (BKK) Senftenberg .
