The section was founded by the main customs administrator Friedrich Molfenter († 1926) and reported to the Association's Central Committee by letter dated December 11, 1891. The founding meeting took place on December 15, 1891, when the section had 63 members. By the first general assembly on January 18, 1893, the number of members increased to 125.

In a letter dated May 19, 1893, the Central Committee urged the section to take care of alpine path and hut construction. From 1894 to 1899 the Heilbronner Weg was laid out. From 1900 onwards, planning began for the old Heilbronner Hütte at Tascheljöchel, which was inaugurated in 1910. As a result of the First World War, the hut fell to Italy in 1919, so that the section began planning a new Heilbronn hut at Verbellner Winterjöchl in 1926 . The section now had over 700 members. The inauguration of the hut on July 1, 1928 was certainly one of the highlights of the interwar period. While the hut recorded increasing numbers of overnight stays in the first years of its existence, the number of members of the section initially fell as a result of the global economic crisis, but then continued to grow in the course of the 1930s. In 1934 the section received its first clubhouse with the guild room in the garden hall building of the Harmonie . After the beginning of the Nazi era, the border closings and later the effects of the war led to massive obstacles to the operation of Heilbronner Weg and Heilbronner Hütte. The path was closed from 1937, the hut was confiscated by the army administration in 1943. The other activities of the section also came to a standstill during the Total War . During the air raid on Heilbronn on December 4, 1944, the clubhouse with the archive and the library were destroyed.

The section was re-established on June 26, 1946. In the same year, more than 600 members could be counted again. In the 1950s, district groups were founded in Öhringen and Schwäbisch Hall . In 1960 the association moved into a new clubhouse with the Ludwig-Link-Zimmer in Heilbronner Gymnasiumstraße 85. In 1961 and 1976 the Heilbronner Hütte was structurally expanded. Especially in the decade after the second expansion, the association experienced a large number of members. In 1972 a new district group followed in Schefflenz , and in 1977 one in Künzelsau .

The section's office had been in a Heilbronn bank for decades, and the section's treasurers were requisitioned from its staff. The members' annual stamps were sold from 1964 to 1973 via the Heilbronn fuel company Kress. A temporary office was then set up in the private home of the members of the Bauer family in Heilbronn-Böckingen. In 1988 the branch office and clubhouse moved to the specially converted Schwabenhaus of Heilbronner Rudergesellschaft Schwaben e. V.

The association set up a climbing arena at the Heilbronn power station in 2002 and moved into its office there in 2008.
