History:

The first ski jumping at Ruhpolding in Chiemgau was performed at Maurerhals (1922, jumps up to 18 m) and Hochfelln in early 1920’s. On Christmas of 1925 the “Adlerschanze” at Maiergschwendt was initiated by Toni Plenk, the only 21-year old groundsman of SC Ruhpolding, and inaugurated with a winner’s distance of 28 meters. On February 18, 1929, a first trial competition was hosted on the new-constructed “Schanze am Rauschberg”, but the expected distances up to 80 meters couldn’t be realized and later on the jump was already given up again. Instead, the ski jump at Maiergschwendt was steadily reconstructed, for instance for the German war championships in 1940, and jumps up to 50 meters were made possible.
After World War II the construction of a ski flying hill was planned, but finally awarded to Obertsdorf. In fall 1953 a new junior jumping hill at Fischerberg was set up. The Adlerschanze was equipped with a new steel-made inrun tower in 1958 and the hill record was improved to 61 meters. In 1961, the facility was enlarged with another smaller junior hill. Before the Christmas competition in 1964/65, the inrun tower of Adlerschanze collapsed and was later completely removed. In 1965, the junior ski jumping hill was still equipped with a plastic covering, but instead the ski jumping activities were more and more moved to Zirmberg, where the first 90 meter ski jump was constructed in 1961/62.
