The club was founded on April 26, 1947 as a multi-discipline club from the municipal sports group Lichtenberg-Nord . The club is primarily known for its football department . In addition still be boxing , table tennis and bowling operated.
history
Before 1947
The roots of today's SV Lichtenberg 47 go back in the broadest sense to the LSC Germania 1923 founded in 1923 , which was forcibly merged with other clubs (including LSC Stern , Rot-Weiss ) to VfB 23 Lichtenberg in 1934 under pressure from the National Socialists . After the end of the Second World War , all football clubs were dissolved by the Allied Control Council and, for the time being, sports were only allowed to be organized in municipal sports groups. So most of the former VfB'ler found themselves together again in the SG Lichtenberg-Nord .
In the 1945/46 Berlin football championship with 36 teams in four seasons, which also served as a qualifying round for the newly created single-track Berlin City League 1946/47, the Lichtenbergers achieved a qualifying place after they prevailed in the playoffs against the sports groups Niederschöneweide and Adlershof tied on points would have. In the following season, however, the team could not hold the class and rose in the end as tenth in the table, one point behind the non-relegation place, in the 1st league class. The club played the last game days of the season under its new name SC Lichtenberg 47 .
1947–1950: From the foundation to the split
On April 26, 1947, SV Lichtenberg 47 was brought into being to begin a new section in Lichtenberg football. The direct return to the city league succeeded immediately. But after a year it was over again, so that in the 1949/50 season they started again in the second Berlin league and once again fought for immediate promotion. As the conflict between the Association of Berliner Ballspielvereine (VBB) from West Berlin and the German Sports Committee of the GDR , founded in 1949 , came to a head in 1950 , what had been the entire Berlin gaming business until then was split up. As a promoter to the Berlin City League, SC Lichtenberg 47 was incorporated into the GDR Oberliga together with the City League side Union Oberschöneweide and VfB Pankow .
1950–1955: Adventure GDR Oberliga and the consequences
In the top division of the GDR, Lichtenberg 47 was only able to hold out for one season and was relegated in 17th place despite a good first round. After that, some leading players migrated to other clubs - especially Motor Oberschöneweide - others ended their active careers for reasons of age, which further weakened the club and led to the fact that they did not keep the class even in the second highest division, the GDR league and finally landed in the district league in 1952 . During this time the name of the club was changed to SG Lichtenberg 47 .
In 1952, the club also got a new stadium. The traditional sports field Normannenstrasse was completely rebuilt from 1950 (during this time 47 played its home games mainly in the Lichtenberg stadium on Herzbergstrasse ) and reopened as a stadium on Normannenstrasse on September 14, 1952 . Only one month later it was inaugurated as the Hans-Zoschke Stadium with a friendly match against the BSG Turbine Weimar . But it wasn't until 1955 that the “Zoschke” returned to higher-class football, when the 47ers were promoted to the newly founded GDR League II by winning the Berlin football championship .
1955–1965: Between the district and 2nd GDR leagues
Lichtenberg 47 belonged to the new 2nd GDR League - apart from one interruption (1957) in the District League - until the end of 1963. They mostly occupied places in the front midfield, and even a third place last season. However, this was not enough to qualify for the GDR league and so the 47ers played again in the district league after the second league was dissolved. One of the formative personalities in the 1950s was trainer Kurt "Sally" Benthin, who worked from 1950 to 1960.
In 1960 the Lichtenberg reserve team celebrated their greatest success when they surprisingly defeated Lok Schöneweide in the Berlin district cup final and qualified for the FDGB cup . There, the East German league team Dynamo Schwerin needed a replay (the first game in the "Zoschke" ended 1: 1) to advance against the second of the 47ers. The first team, on the other hand, did not have that much success: After restarting in the district league, the club was able to celebrate the second East Berlin championship title in 1964, which entitled them to the qualifying round for promotion to the league. There the team remained unsuccessful and so missed promotion, just like in the following season when they were left behind against Motor Köpenick .
1965–1969: Comeback in the GDR league and joining the sponsoring company
Only at the end of the 1965/66 season did the 47ers manage to return to the GDR league. However, they benefited from the rule that the reserve teams of the football clubs founded in 1966 were not allowed to advance. Therefore, the second team of 1. FC Union remained in the district league, while the second-placed Lichtenbergers were allowed to compete in the promotion round against Motor Stralsund , Lokomotive Prenzlau and Motor Eberswalde . In the following season the team finished eleventh and thus secured the class. This success could be repeated a year later, so that other clubs noticed the 47er trainer Otto Tschirner and he went to BSG Chemie Leipzig in 1968 . At the same time, the reserve caused a stir again when it qualified for the district league in 1967. But it ended there after a year. And the first team could not fully compensate for Tschirner's departure and in 1969 were relegated from the GDR league.
The year 1969 also marked a turning point in sporting policy for the club. If you had been a private association for 22 years, you now joined, u. a. also for financial reasons, a sponsoring company as a company sports community (BSG). Thus, the merged SG Lichtenberg 47 and the BSG Elpro to BSG EAB Lichtenberg 47 . "EAB" stood here for electrical project and plant construction .
1969–1977: The "golden" 70s
With their new trainer Heini Brüll , who came from their old rival Motor Köpenick, the Lichtenbergers succeeded in winning the Berlin championship again straight away. However, they failed in the league qualification at the BSG Motor Warnowwerft Warnemünde . It wasn't until a year later - u. a. supported by former Unioners like Ralf Quest or Jürgen Stoppok - better and rose again.
In the first year Lichtenberg 47 took a secure seventh place and accordingly had little to do with relegation. In the following season, however, they could only save because of the better goal difference compared to the competitor Motor Hennigsdorf . In 1974 followed with fourth place, the best placement in the GDR league for the 47ers. This was achieved, among other things, with the former BFC Dynamo player Detlef Schneider , who was also used in the major league at BFC. The 1974/75 season could only be brought to a very close successful end when the direct competitor Motor Ludwigsfelde was beaten on the last day of the game . The poor performance also meant saying goodbye to Heini Brüll, who was briefly coach of league competitor 1. FC Union that same year. But even the change of coach could not prevent the Lichtenberg crash in the following years. In 1976, when you were penultimate, you were lucky that the reserve teams were withdrawn from the league into their own separate junior championship, but in 1977 you only reached the bottom rank and were thus once again in the district league. The six successful years of the Lichtenberger were over. The most important players of that era were Jürgen Reimann (Lichtenberg's record player in the GDR league with 86 games), Michael Sobek (47's most successful league scorer with 27 goals) and Bernd Tiffert .
1977–1990: New beginning with Schwenzfeier
After relegation, the Lichtenbergers did not immediately return to the league. In 1978 you finished third behind BSG NARVA Berlin and SG Hohenschönhausen , after which you had to give way twice as vice-champion of BSG KWO Berlin (1979) and BSG Bergmann-Borsig Berlin-Wilhelmsruh (1980). In the 1980/81 season they finally won the Berlin championship again under coach Werner Schwenzfeier (since 1978 with Lichtenberg 47), which the team was able to repeat in 1983. But the team was no longer strong enough for the GDR league and was relegated immediately. At that time the association was already called BSG EAB Berlin 47 , a renaming that became necessary when the headquarters of the sponsoring company EAB was now in this and no longer in Lichtenberg due to the establishment of the Marzahn district . As a result, Lichtenberg 47 was no longer a purely Lichtenberg club and the name was changed accordingly. In the following years, the district league KWO Berlin set the tone, so that the Lichtenbergers did not reach first place again until 1990. In the subsequent round of promotion to the GDR league , however, you could only leave BSG Motor Zschopau behind, while the two promoted FSV Kali Werra Tiefenort and Bergbau-SV Borna as well as third SV progress Neustadt landed before the 47ers.
1990 to 2019: Between the major and association leagues
In 1990 the East Berlin District League went into its final season. The collapse of the GDR and German reunification also resulted in reunification in football, which took place between the 1990/91 and 1991/92 seasons. Thus, the final season of the district league also became a qualifying round for the newly created third-class Oberliga Nordost . With the sixth East Berlin city championship, the club, now renamed SV Lichtenberg 47 , managed to qualify. In the Oberliga Nordost, the 47ers only lasted a year, so in the summer of 1992 they were one of the founding members of the Verbandsliga Berlin , the new top division in Berlin. Two years later, the club was surprisingly relegated from the association to the regional league. Two years later, under the leadership of coach Bodo Blumentritt, he was promoted to the association league and after several attempts the club returned in 2001 under Udo Richter for four years in the Oberliga Nordost.
After relegation, under the direction of Werner "Pico" Voigt , the team began to continually rebuild from 2005. In 2008, Lichtenberg received the second place the chance to climb back into the Oberliga Nordost in a round of elimination against the also runner-up of the Association League Saxony-Anhalt - the reserve of 1. FC Magdeburg . The club was unable to take advantage of this opportunity: After a 1-1 draw in the "Zoschke", the Magdeburg team achieved a 0-0 return for promotion. In 2012, the 47 runners-up in the Berlin League. That meant the return to the now fifth-class league, to which they have belonged ever since. For the first time, Lichtenberg reached the final in the Berlin State Cup in the 2015/16 season , but lost to BFC Preussen with 0: 1.
In 2019, the first team won the tournament of the Berlin upper and regional division for the third time. In addition, with a 2-0 win on May 18, 2019 in front of 1,452 paying spectators in the HOWOGE-Arena “Hans Zoschke” against pursuers Tennis Borussia, she was promoted to the fourth-class regional soccer league Northeast for the first time in the club's history .
Women's soccer
1971 marked the beginning of women's football at Lichtenberg 47. The club was fifth and fourth in the GDR's best determination in women's football in 1981 and 1983, respectively, and was thus one of the best teams in the GDR .

The stadium
SV Lichtenberg plays its home games in the Hans-Zoschke Stadium . The stadium was built on the grounds of the Normannenstrasse sports field from 1949 to 1952 and was opened as the "Stadium on Normannenstrasse" as part of the 1952 FDGB Cup final between SG VP Dresden and Einheit Pankow. Shortly afterwards it was named Hans-Zoschke-Stadion in honor of the anti-fascist resistance fighter Hans Zoschke . In recent years it has been renovated in stages. The main stand was equipped with bucket seats, the sound system was renewed and a scoreboard was installed. The stadium's capacity has been reduced from 18,000 to 10,000 spectators. Since October 31, 2009 the traditional Hans-Zoschke-Stadium has been named HOWOGE-Arena "Hans Zoschke" . The outer sign is a name plaque on the stadium, which was ceremoniously unveiled on October 31.
