History:

At Oberhundem in North Rhine-Westphalia a ski club was founded after World War II and soon people started with the construction of a ski jumping hill at Riesenberg (giant mountain, 720 m). With the help of Olympic participant Rudolf Lesser the ski jump was constructed in 1953 and on 1954-01-17 it was inaugurated on the name “St. Lambertus-Schanze”, attended by approx. 2,000 spectators. The hill was the largest natural jumping facility of West-Germany and was later enlarged on a K-Point of 64 m. Additionally a youth ski jumping hill was constructed. The competition for “Josef Schmelzer Trophy” was held annually with a exquisite range of participants.
