Table medal made in the DDR. The Deutscher Turn- und Sportbund (DTSB German Gymnastics and Sports Federation) was a mass organization of the German Democratic Republic from 1957 until shortly after German reunification. Membership in the organization included nearly four million people, which accounted for almost 20% of the population of the GDR.
Founded in 1957, the DTSB was the last major mass organization to be created by the East German government, and was the central agency responsible for mass sport. The federation consisted of individual sports associations within the country, ranging from sailing to chess. While it worked in conjunction with the Gesellschaft für Sport und Technik (GST), the DTSB focused more on adult activities, whereas the GST focused on youth activities.
Upon the dissolution of East Germany and reunification with the West, the organization was disbanded and the individual sports associations either continued to exist independently or joined their Western counterparts.
