The German Skat Association (German: Deutscher Skatverband) or DSkV is the umbrella organisation for German Skat clubs. It was founded on 12 March 1899 in Halle an der Saale and the headquarters of the club is the Skat town of Altenburg.[1] From 1954 to 2001, Bielefeld was the location of the Association's headquarters due to the division of Germany.[1] The offices in Bielefeld were closed in 2005; since then, Altenburg has once again become the only head office location.[1]
