history

With the construction of the combined pool in Hamburg-Ohlsdorf (indoor and outdoor pools), the club's activities shifted to the north of the Hanseatic city . The club house was initially built in Justus-Strandes-Weg. In the 1990s, the clubhouse moved directly to the former entrance of the Ohlsdorf swimming pool. In 2004 the HSC celebrated its 125th anniversary with a large open house in the swimming pool.

The HSC has a wide range of offers in the areas of health and popular sports as well as swimming in the youth and performance area. There used to be an arts and diving department and water polo was played successfully . Diving was given up, the water polo department was spun off and has been a pillar of the water polo club Sportteam Hamburg since 1995 .
