history

The association was founded in 1903 in the city of Mulhouse, which at that time belonged to the German Empire as part of the realm of Alsace-Lorraine .

After Alsace-Lorraine fell to France again after the First World War , the club entered under its French name AS Mulhouse . The club played in the 1919/20 season and from 1922 to 1927 and from 1935 to 1937 in the highest French regional class, the Alsatian honor division ( Division d'Honneur Alsace ).

During the German occupation of France in World War II from 1940 to 1944, the football clubs from Alsace-Lorraine took part in the games of the German Reich . The AS Mulhouse was included in the Gauliga Alsace under the German name ASV Mülhausen and took fifth place in the Oberelsass season in the 1940/41 season. In the 1941/42 season , the club went under the name SpVgg Mülhausen in the now single-track Gauliga and rose to the eleventh and penultimate place in the local district class.

Since 1945, the club played again as AS Mulhouse in the French league system and was a regular participant in the Alsatian honor division, whose championship he won in 1955, 1962 and 1988. For several years the club also played in a higher national class. In the seasons 1955/56, 1962/63 to 1968/69 and 1970/71 to 1971/72, the club played in the highest French amateur class , which was the third division at this time. 1982/83 and from 1988/89 to 1991/92 there were seasons in the fourth division, Division 4 . After that, the club only played in the Alsatian area.

In the seasons 1922/23 , 1956/57 , 1957/58 and 1965/66 , AS Mulhouse reached the national main round of the French Cup .

On June 22, 2002, AS Mulhouse merged with FC Red Star Mulhouse to form the Association sportive Red Star Mulhouse .
