The fascination of fencing
Determination, tactics, speed, fitness and lots of fun and excitement - these are the words that describe fencing.
Fencing challenges the body and requires a lot of "brains", because in addition to body control and quick reactions, the fencer develops tactics and concepts in order to adapt to a wide variety of opponents and decide the battles in his favor. It is not for nothing that fencing is also called “chess with weapons”. Many students fall in love with this sport and remain loyal to fencing even after the course.
In cooperation with the fencing department of the Turnverein 1875 Paderborn e.V., this academic and sporting tradition is maintained and maintained.
