History:

As early as 1905, the operators of the Kurhaus Hundseck created an aisle to enable the first jumping runs on skis. Even before the First World War, the Bühlertal Ski Club was founded, which promoted winter sports activities on the Hundseck.
In 1921 the first proper ski jumping hill was built on the north side of the Pfrimmackerkopf. The chemist Max Fremery, who had financed the construction with 5000 marks, became its patron. At first distances of more than 20 meters were possible there. In 1926 the expansion of the Max Fremery ski jump with a new inrun tower was decided and implemented in 1927. So in 1928 the Black Forest Ski Championships could be held. Ernst Dietsche from Lenzkirch won with jumps of around 30 meters, but in training Ehrenbieth even jumped 41 meters! In 1932 the ski jump was modernized again. The last competition there took place there in 1940. After the Second World War, the facility was briefly revived again, but then quickly abandoned.
Instead, from 1948 to 50, the Nordschwarzwald-Schanze was built by Skiclub Baden-Baden close to the Kurhaus Hundseck. The opening competition on 1951-01-07 was even attended by 5,000 spectators and in the 1950s numerous international ski jumping competitions were hosted until the hill was given to SC Bühlertal in the 1960s. In 1960, also Georg Thoma competed on the Nordschwarzwald-Schanze. The most famous local hero of that time was Ewald Roscher.
In 1976 the ski club began to reconstruct the facility completely and converted it according to FIS specifications. In different construction stages, a new judge's tower and a modernized inrun tower were built. Unfortunately, after the conversion, not a single official competition was held and also training activities finished abruptly. This is the sad story of a ski jump, which once was blossoming in 1950’s, then was reborn in order to die immediately.
