History:
The ski jump was located in the Bienengarten area, south of the village of Sagar in Saxony, near the Polish border. It stood at an elevation of 123 meters above sea level, in a former sandstone quarry, and is considered the northernmost ski jumping facility in this German federal state.
The first jumping attempts were made during the winter season of 1953/54 on a temporary snow hill. Between 1954 and 1964, several smaller youth jumps were built and actively used. In 1965, construction began on the new Oberlausitz-Schanze, which was officially opened in August 1967 with the participation of the SC Dynamo Klingenthal club. The structure included a 21-meter-long wooden inrun tower, built on solid concrete foundations that are still visible today.
The first hill record was set by Henry Glaß, while the last and unbeaten best result belongs to Steffen Wonde from the BSG Traktor Sagar club.
As a member of SC Dynamo Klingenthal, Glaß won a bronze medal on the large hill at the 1976 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck and a silver medal on the normal hill at the 1978 World Championships in Lahti. After retiring from competition in 1981, he became a coach. Between 1990 and 2006, he served as assistant coach of the German national ski jumping team. In 2006, he was dismissed from that role after it became known that he had collaborated with the Ministry for State Security (Stasi) of the former East Germany.
He is currently active as a youth coach at the VSC Klingenthal club, where he also trains young female ski jumpers. In 2022, he was named “Coach of the Year” by the German Ski Association (DSV) for his contribution to the development of women's ski jumping in Saxony.
In 1988, the inrun tower was shortened for safety reasons, and in 1991 the facility was decommissioned. The jump was abandoned and fell into natural decay. Today, the former ski jump site is forested. Since 2005, the Saxon Forestry Office in Weißwasser has organized popular forest experience days (Walderlebnistage) at the site, which attract many visitors.
