About RC Strasbourg

RC Strasbourg Alsace is a professional football club based in Strasbourg, Alsace, founded in 1906. The club originally started as Fußballclub Neudorf and has changed names and national affiliations multiple times due to the region’s shifting political history between France and Germany. It plays its home matches at the Stade de la Meinau and is known for its blue and white identity.

The club has experienced a long and eventful history, including periods in both top-flight football and lower divisions. One of its greatest achievements came in 1979 when Strasbourg won the French championship. It has also won several domestic cup competitions, including the Coupe de France and Coupe de la Ligue, and has competed regularly in European tournaments since the 1960s.

Despite financial difficulties and relegations, including a bankruptcy that forced the club down to the lower tiers in the 2010s, Strasbourg rebuilt itself and returned to Ligue 1. In recent years, it has re-established stability in the top division and continues to be supported by a passionate fan base. The club remains an important symbol of Alsatian identity and resilience in French football.
