Demolition of the Inselbergschanze in Brotterode: new hopes after misfortune

It will be exciting again in Thuringian winter sports! The demolition of the old Schanzenturm of the Inselbergschanze in Brotterode has finally ended. After several weeks of hard work, a special company from Breitungen has successfully brought the tower to the trap, reports mdr . This means that the course stands for the construction of a new ski jumping tower that is supposed to receive its first ski jumper at the beginning of next year.

But the way was anything but easy. As N-tv had to be made several attempts to bring up the almost 60-year-old tower. A new method was in use in which the steel masts should be heated with electricity. Unfortunately, the required temperature range between 650 and 700 degrees Celsius was unavailable; The maximum temperature achieved was only 300 degrees. This technical setback led to a failed demolition attempt, which was followed by numerous onlookers in the ski stadium. The company MB Special Abort is now analyzing the reasons for the failure, while another attempt is announced for the next week.

new building and future competitions

The completion of the demolition work can now begin the construction of the Schanzenturm. The Winter Sports Association (WSV) Brotterode has already announced that the work for the new foundations will start immediately. A crane has already been built on Seimberg to support the upcoming construction work. The district and the city have not been ragged; They plan to invest two million euros in the ski jump project, reports Volksstimme .

The special thing about this new building will be that the new ski jump will meet the requirements of the World Ski Association (FIS). This is particularly important because Brotterode acts as a training performance center for young people in the Nordic combination and the region hopes to carry out international competitions again soon. The traditional Continental Cup jumping should take place on the new ski jump again in early 2026.

The next few months will be crucial for winter sports in Brotterode. A new skasur tower could give new impulses and attract many young talents. We are looking forward to what will happen in the coming time!
