History:

At the beginning of the 1930’s in the winter nearly every Sunday ski jumping competitions took place on Bürgerwaldschanze at Traunstein, also with international ski jumpers. When such an event was, already at that time visitors had to pay before entering the facility. At that time different championships up to “the German” were hosted at Traunstein.
After 1945 it went on not so well. In the 50’s and 60’s every year ski jumping competitions took place, but they only had a regional importance. In this years there was always enough snow and so the landing hill which was dropping very sharply was used for alpine skiing, too.
Finally in 1972 the large Bürgerwaldschanze was put down.
Another ski jumping venue, which was given up in 1988 were Hochbergschanzen with K-Points of 40 m, 28 m and 20 m.
As a substitute already in the same year a new small ski jumping facility was built up at Sparzer Graben. Since 2002 these Hans-Namberger-Schanzen have been renovated and on 2005-07-31 both plastic covered hills were finally reopened.
