Chess Walter Henneberger was the younger brother of Moriz Henneberger. He became sole Swiss champion in 1904 and 1912 and shared the title in 1906, 1911 and 1914. He composed a number of chess tasks, mainly during his active period. In 1916 he won against Emanuel Lasker at his simultaneous presentation in Zurich.
