history
When it was founded in 1909, the club was one of the first and important Jewish sports clubs that had been founded in Austria-Hungary in the period since 1908 (with Hasmonea Lwów , Makkabi Kraków and Hakoah Czernowitz ).
He was close to the General Jewish Workers' Union and was the sporting rival of the Zionist sports club Makkabi . The derbies of the two football teams were called "holy war". This designation was later transferred to the Krakowa Derby between Wisła Kraków and KS Cracovia in Kraków .
The soccer team was one of the founding clubs of the first Polish soccer league in 1927 , but had to be relegated as 14th and bottom of the table after the season.
The water polo players became the first Polish champions in 1925 and were able to repeat the success in 1926 and 1927. In 1928 the team went to Maccabi and was national champion there for another 5 years.
In 1939 the association was dissolved after the invasion of the German armed forces.
