About Hertha BSC

Hertha BSC is a German professional football club based in Berlin, founded in 1892. It is one of the oldest clubs in the country and was also a founding member of the German Football Association in 1900. The team, often called “Die Alte Dame” (The Old Lady), plays its home matches at the Olympiastadion and has long been an important representative of football in the German capital.

The club achieved its greatest success in the early 20th century, particularly by winning the German championships in 1930 and 1931. Despite these early achievements, Hertha did not consistently dominate German football in later decades. It has spent much of its history alternating between strong performances and more modest results, while remaining a recognizable name in national competitions.

In modern times, Hertha BSC has experienced fluctuations between the top division and the second tier, including relegation from the Bundesliga in the 2022–23 season. Despite these challenges, the club maintains a large fan base and continues to play an important role in German football, with ambitions to re-establish itself at the highest level.
