history
The club was founded in 1913 as SV 1913 Schwientochlowitz and belonged to the Southeast German Football Association .
With the division of Upper Silesia in June 1922, Schwientochlowitz fell to Poland.
On July 13, 1922, the SV 1913 Schwientochlowitz was one of 43 German clubs in the Polish East Upper Silesia member of the German Voivodeship Football Association, which was newly founded in East Upper Silesia on that day .
In 1923, the Polish authorities enforced the merger of SV 1913 Schwientochlowitz with the Polish association Śląsk Świętochłowice .
After the annexation of the area by the Germans in 1939, the German name SV 1913 Schwientochlowitz was used again.
On November 21, 1939, the founding meeting of the Gymnastics and Sports Club 1891 Schwientochlowitz took place in the German House in Schwientochlowitz. The great hall was overcrowded with gymnasts and athletes from the village of Schwientochlowitz - Eintrachthütte .
For him, the previous Polish national players Walter Brom and Ewald Cebulla , who had signed the German people's list , also competed in the Gauliga Schlesien .
In the 1940/41 season he was promoted to the Gauliga Schlesien, one of the then sixteen highest German divisions.
In 1941 the blue-whites were among the founding members of the Gauliga Oberschlesien , in which they played continuously from 1941 to 1945 with only moderate success.
After the end of the Second World War, the city of Schwientochlowitz became Polish and the TuS 1891 Schwientochlowitz association was dissolved.
