The Brisbane German Club in East Brisbane has been a cultural institution in Brisbane for both Germans and Australians for many years. It is generally known for its convivial atmosphere, great selection of beers, excellent authentic food (pork knuckle, Schnitzel, Sauerbraten, Kasseler, Leberkäse, etc.), and, of course, the original Oktoberfest. But how did it all begin? German migration to Queensland started in the mid-1800s and Germans were the largest non-British ethnic group until ca.1914. On 27 May 1883, a group of forty German men decided to make their dream of a German Club a reality. Four years later, on 24 May 1887 the first Clubhouse was opened in Manning Street, South Brisbane, called Deutscher Turn Verein (German Athletic Club). It soon became very popular and many subgroups were formed to cater to diverse interests such as a choir, bowling team, theatrical group, and library. All went well until a fire on 15 February 1889 completely destroyed the building. Undeterred, members decided to start again. They bought a larger block of land in Vulture Street and built a new clubhouse with funds provided by the German Consul. This second clubhouse was opened on 24 May 1890. It became the center for promoting German culture, language, and music. Bad luck struck again in 1932 when the building had to be demolished as an infestation of white ants had made it unsafe. On 17 June 1933 the foundation stone for the third building was laid and the new building, including a dance hall and skittle alley, was opened in September 1934. The club continued to be a popular social venue for Germans and locals and activities extended to dances, musical performances, and the formation of more sporting subgroups. During both World Wars, the German community volunteered to close the club and made it available to the Red Cross and as a military training school for the A.I.F. It opened again a few years after the end of WWII. Source: kangaroopointhistory.com.au/places/community-clubs/the-br...
