history
The club was founded in 1875 as the fifth gymnastics club in the Odenwald district. The members Pabst, Pilger and Weitzel played a decisive role in founding the association. On June 1, 1928, the gymnastics club was entered in the register of associations at the Höchst District Court. After the dissolution of many clubs in the course of the Second World War , the sporting departments of the culture and sports association (KSV) Höchst, which had been founded in the meantime, agreed to found a gymnastics and sports club. At the founding meeting on January 25, 1949, a modern statute was approved and the association was entered in the register of associations under the current name TSV 1875 Höchst / Odenwald eV. With this decision, the two clubs Turnverein Höchst and the Sports Club 1920 Höchst had merged.
The current chairman of the entire association is Horst Bitsch, represented by the second chairman Horst Stellwag (as of October 2014).
