history

Original logo

The club was founded in 1921 as SV Hindenburg Allenstein and played in the league system of the Baltic Lawn and Winter Sports Association (BRWV). The club name goes back to the General Field Marshal and later Reich President Paul von Hindenburg . From 1921/22 a game operation in the first-class district league Southeast Prussia is handed down, but after the 1923/24 season the club withdrew from this division for unknown reasons. From 1925/26, Allenstein played in the second-class 1st class in Southeast Prussia . By winning the District Cup West in 1927 , the club qualified for the promotion round to the East Prussian League 1928/29 , but had to admit defeat to SC Prussia Insterburg and SV Masovia Lyck and missed promotion to the first class. As the winner of the Staffelliga West 1928/29 , Allenstein qualified again for the promotion round to the East Prussian League 1929/30 . This time the promotion round was successfully designed so that SV Hindenburg Allenstein played first class again in the 1929/30 season. In 1931/32 the club qualified for the East Prussian football final by winning the South Division League . In this, Allenstein came second behind the series champion VfB Königsberg and was thus allowed to participate in the Baltic football finals in 1932. In this round-robin tournament , Allenstein reached first place in the table despite a 1: 6 home defeat against VfB Königsberg , thus becoming Baltic football champions for the first time and was thus allowed to participate in the German football championship in 1931/32 . There, however , Hindenburg Allenstein was eliminated in the round of 16, the game played on May 8, 1932 in Königsberg was lost against Eintracht Frankfurt 6-0. Also in 1932/33 Allenstein won the departmental league south , in the East Prussian football finals the victory was also achieved in this season. If you were able to leave SV Prussia-Samland Königsberg behind you, Königsberg was more constant in the subsequent Baltic football final, so that Allenstein only achieved second place despite two wins in direct comparison with Königsberg in the round-robin tournament. This also entitled to participate in the German soccer championship 1932/33 , there Hindenburg Allenstein sensationally beat the two-time German soccer champions Hertha BSC 4-1 in the round of 16 . This victory was remarkable in that it has only happened three times that clubs from the Baltic Sports Association have survived the first round of the German football championship. In the semifinals, however, it was all over for Allenstein, as in the previous year the club Eintracht Frankfurt lost , this time with 2:12.

When the National Socialists came to power in 1933, the football associations were dissolved and replaced by Sportgaue . The four best teams from the Division League South received a starting place in the Gauliga East Prussia in 1933/34 . With the first place in the table in the league actually intended for the 1933/34 association finals, SV Hindenburg Allenstein qualified for the Gauliga East Prussia . In 1933/34 Allenstein moved into the Gaufinale as the winner of Group B. The 3-2 first leg win over SC Preußen Danzig was not enough, Allenstein lost the second leg 6-1 and missed the Gaumeist title. In 1935/36 the club moved into the Gaufinale again, this time the opponent was SV Prussia-Samland Königsberg . With two wins (2-0 and 7-2), Allenstein secured his first Gaumeist title and qualified for the German soccer championship 1935/36 , in which Allenstein was eliminated in the group stage. In the Tschammerpokal 1936 , the club reached the round of 16, which was lost 1: 3 against VfB Peine . The successful title defense of the Gau championship succeeded in 1936/37 with a 7-0 success in the second leg against SV Yorck Boyen Insterburg , in the subsequent German soccer championship the group phase was again finished. In 1938/39 the club , which had meanwhile become a military club under the name of location MSV Hindenburg Allenstein, was able to win the East Prussian Gaume Championship for the last time.

With the beginning of the Second World War in 1939, the military sports club could no longer take part in the game. Despite only six seasons in the Gauliga East Prussia, the club occupies second place in the all-time table of this Gauliga behind VfB Königsberg . After the Second World War , the formerly German Allenstein was occupied by the Soviet Union and placed under Polish administration . The MSV Hindenburg Allenstein , like all other German clubs and institutions, was forcibly dissolved.
