history

The club was founded in 1904 as FC Franken Fürth , and in 1912 it was renamed FV Franken Fürth . In 1922 the club was affiliated with MTV Fürth , and as early as 1924 the club broke up as part of a clean divorce and was re-established as VfR Fürth . In the 1925/26 season , the club was promoted to the Bavarian regional league , one of the five first-class football leagues of the southern German football association at the time . On October 10, 1926, the opening of the municipal stadium on Grünwalder Strasse took place with the game SV 1860 Munich against VfR Fürth , which Fürth won 4-2. For the season 1927/28 the district league was divided into two groups, Fürth played from then on in the Northern Bavaria group . In this season, VfR Fürth qualified by placing third for the second / third round of the southern German football finals , in which the participants in the German football championship were played off. In this, however, the club was only seventh of eight qualified teams and thus missed participation in the German soccer championship 1927/28 . Until the 1932/33 season, VfR Fürth was able to hold its own in the first-class district league in Northern Bavaria , but remained behind the strong local competitor SpVgg Fürth in terms of sport .

In the course of the Gleichschaltung, the South German Football Association was dissolved a few months after the National Socialists came to power in 1933. With the Gauliga Bayern , a new top soccer league was introduced for the Bavarian sports sector. Despite reaching sixth place in the preseason, VfR Fürth was not taken into account for the first Gauliga season , as SpVgg Fürth , a soccer club from Fürth, has already been included in this league. The club dissolved in 1936 and VfB Fürth was founded as its successor , which in 1939 merged with the postal sports department in TV 1860 Fürth to form Post-SG Fürth . In the 1939/40 season , the club failed in the promotion round to Gauliga Bayern just on the Würzburger Kickers . With the division of the Gauliga Bayern into northern and southern Bavaria, the Post-SG succeeded in advancing into it in the 1942/43 season . In 1943 the club formed a war syndicate (KSG) called KSG Post-SG Nürnberg / Fürth , which allowed KSG to compete in the Gauliga Nordbayern 1943/44 , in which it took eighth place, despite last place in the Gauliga season 1942/43 . For the season 1944/45 the KSG was expanded to the KSG Post / Reichsbahn Nürnberg-Fürth . At the time of the end of the season, KSG took seventh place in the Middle Franconia relay of the Gauliga Bayern.

After the Second World War , VfR Fürth was re-established, but already merged with other clubs from Fürth on November 24, 1945 to form ASV Fürth . The sports field at the Magazine Street is from the ASV Fürth continue to be used.
