history

The association was founded on June 4th, 1907 in Bischweiler, a municipality that was then part of the Hagenau district in the realm of Alsace-Lorraine . After Alsace fell back to France in 1920, FC Bischwiller played continuously from 1919 to 1934 in the highest French regional class, the Alsatian honor division ( Division d´Honneur Alsace ) and was Alsatian regional champion in 1925, 1933 and 1934. In the interwar period, FC Bischwiller also reached the first national main round of the French Cup ten times , namely in the cup competitions 1921/22 , 1922/23 , 1923/24 , 1924/25 , 1925/26 , 1927/28 , 1928/29 , 1931/32 , 1932/33 and 1933/34 . In the 1923/24 competition, Bischwiller reached the second round of the Cup and was eliminated after a replay against the RC Roubaix .

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 . FC Bischwiller was included in the Gauliga Alsace under its German name FC Bischweiler in 1940 , but rose as bottom of the table after the 1940/41 season in the local district league.
