History:

In summer 1928 the Wintersportverein in Lauter at Erz Mountains started with the construction of Grieseschanze leaded by Emil Friedrich. Thereby motorcycles were used to tie turfs up the landing hill in order to fix it (see image). The natural ski jump had a 4 meters high inrun hill, as well as a wooden take-off. The first trial competition was hosted in December 1928, finally the inauguration took place on 1929-01-05. The best jumpers jumped on up to 50 meters on Grieseschanze, for young jumpers a smaller 20 meter hill with at take-off made out of stone and soil existed.
The last competition was hosted in 1938, from 1955 to 1958 there was a yearly competition on the small hill organized by the local school.
