history

The official founding date of VfB Hermsdorf is June 14, 1899. However, this date refers to the founding of the German gymnastics club Theodor Körner Hermsdorf iM (in the Mark; Hermsdorf was not yet part of Berlin at the time) and thus also represents the founding date of the gymnastics department. On February 14, 1906, the gymnastics club Jahn , Hermsdorf b. Berlin founded another gymnastics club. Both gymnastics clubs merged in 1920. Turn- und Sportvereinigung Hermsdorf 1899 e.V. became the new common name that was entered in the club register for the first time . V. elected. In the course of the efforts to harmonize the gymnastics and sports association in 1934 with the German gymnastics community Hermsdorf 1908 to the German gymnastics community Hermsdorf 1899 e. V. forcibly united. At the same time, the Hermsdorfer Sportclub , which was initially founded as a tennis club, also reported footballers in 1906 , so that it was renamed the Association for Movement Games 1916 in 1916 , which is the date the football department was founded.

During the Second World War , sports activities also came to a complete standstill in Hermsdorf. Only after the end of this did sports activities begin again. With the approval of the founding of clubs by the Allied Occupation Powers, the sports club was re-founded by Hermsdorf gymnasts, footballers and handball players under the name Verein für Bewegungsspiele Hermsdorf on June 10, 1947 and approved as a registered club on August 1, 1949. With this name, borrowed from the former football club - or VfB Hermsdorf for short - the aim was to do justice to all future sports, and that was the oldest year in which a Hermsdorf sports movement was founded.

Football department

The football department of VfB Hermsdorf was founded in 1916 under the name Hermsdorfer SC 1916 . From 1919 the club appeared as VfB Hermsdorf , but always played lower class. Only in the 1932/33 season did VfB play in the second-class Oberliga Berlin. Hermsdorf did not succeed in participating in the Gauliga Berlin-Brandenburg .

In 1945 the association was dissolved and re-established as SG Hermsdorf . The members of TuS 1899 Hermsdorf also flowed into the sports group . On a sporting level, the club, renamed VfB Hermsdorf again in 1947, achieved its first promotion to the Berlin amateur league , in which Hermsdorf was initially active for ten seasons. For the 1965/66 season, the higher-class Regionalliga Berlin was increased to 16 clubs, whereupon the Hermsdorfer rose to fourth place with, among others, SC Gatow and SC Staaken in the then second-highest German division. VfB held the regional league until 1968, but rose with only thirteen season points behind the BSC Kickers in 1900 .

In 1971, the Hermsdorfer were relegated from the amateur league and sank into the lowlands of West Berlin local football for several years . From 1998 until relegation in 2016, VfB Hermsdorf played in the Verbandsliga Berlin (now the Berlin League ). The greatest success in the club's history was reaching the finals of the Berlin State Cup in 2008 , in which Hermsdorf lost 2-0 to the top division tennis Borussia Berlin .

The home of the club's soccer department is the Seebadstrasse sports complex, which can accommodate 2000 spectators.
