The first German Olympic Gold Medal in ski jumping Helmut Recknagel grew up in Steinbach-Hallenberg, who won in Squaw Valley (USA) in 1960 superior gold and was also the first Middle-European to beat the Scandinavians at Holmenkollen in 1957. This was the year of the beginning of a great career.
Already from 1908 on jumps on up to 12 meters were made on a small hill at “Dicker Berg” in the Thuringian town. Between 1919 and 1922 the very first ski jumping hill at Arnsberg was constructed with view on the Hallenburg ruin. The inrun tower of the 40 meter hill was remodelled in 1939 and 1947.
In 1954 the facility was new profiled into a K57 and aside a new K30 youth ski jump was constructed, first plastic mattings were installed in 1973-76.
Finally in 1999 a complete new-construction of Hallenburgschanzen started and since 2005 the three plastic covered jumps K30, K17 and K9 have been in use mainly for training of young jumpers. In 2016 the K30 was profoundly modernized and in the course of that a K4 children hill was added.
