The Laubenthal Württemberg, sometimes known after its constructors as the Akaflieg Darmstadt Württemberg, was a single seat glider designed by Paul Laubenthal and built at the University of Darmstadt for Wolf Hirth, who won four prizes in it at an international competition in France in 1928.
The Akademische Fliegeruppe Darmstadt, founded in 1921, was the first of several Akafliegs associated with German universities intended to give annually changing student teams experience of aircraft design.
Both rudder and elevators were all-moving and balanced, with straight edges, rounded tips and with their short mountings faired into the fuselage.
The Württemberg had a short landing skid under the forward fuselage and a spring type tailskid.
