The Marienthal Workers’ Athletic Club

The still existing »Arbeiter-Sport-Klub Marienthal« (Marienthal Workers’ Athletic Club), founded in 1908, is the only club of Gramatneusiedl, that still exclusively has »Marienthal« as a place name. It was part of the central sports organization of the Marienthal factory workers, the Marienthal Workers' Athletic and Sports Club, dissolved in 1934 by the state, which had several sections: for example, seven football and three bicycle sections, but also sections for heavy gymnastics, male and female gymnastics, punch-ball, handball for men and women, wrestling, weightlifting, bicycle-ball, and bicycle-dance.
