We ask which subgroups of the Veech group of a primitive translation surface can be realised via a translation covering. For many primitive surfaces we prove that partition stabilising congruence subgroups are the Veech group of a covering surface. We also address the coverings via their monodromy groups and present examples of cyclic coverings in short orbits, i.e. with large Veech groups UR - https://www.ksp.kit.edu/9783731501800 UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/61886 ER -
