Biography
Formation
Alemannia Aachen, officially known as Aachener Turn- und Sportverein Alemannia 1900 e. V., was founded on December 16, 1900, by a group of eighteen high school students in Aachen, North Rhine-Westphalia. The club was established as FC Alemannia to avoid confusion with another local team, 1. FC Aachen, using the Latin term for Germany, Alamannia. The early years saw the club grow in popularity, winning its first championship in the Rhineland-Westphalia FA in 1907 and joining the Westdeutsche Fussball Verband in 1909.
Historical Challenges
The First World War severely impacted Alemannia, reducing its membership from 200 to just 37. In 1919, the club merged with Aachener Turnverein 1847, becoming TSV Alemannia Aachen 1900, but this partnership was short-lived, ending in 1924. Throughout the years, Alemannia maintained connections with clubs across the Belgian and Dutch borders, fostering friendly rivalries, particularly with Roda JC Kerkrade, which shares similar club colors.
Competitive Eras
Alemannia Aachen has had a notable presence in German football, competing in various leagues including the Bundesliga, 2. Bundesliga, 3. Liga, and Regionalliga West. The club enjoyed a significant period in the Bundesliga during the late 1960s and made a brief return to the top tier in the 2005-06 season after a successful campaign in the 2. Bundesliga. However, financial difficulties led to bankruptcy in late 2012, forcing the club to restart in the Regionalliga West for the 2013-14 season.
Legacy and Achievements
Alemannia Aachen has a rich history of achievements, including being runners-up in the Bundesliga in the 1968-69 season and the 2. Bundesliga in 2005-06. The club has also won multiple championships in the Regionalliga West and has had success in the DFB-Pokal, finishing as runners-up three times. Their legacy continues to be celebrated by fans and the local community, marking them as a significant part of German football history.

Career & Clubs
Foundation to World War II
In the second half of the 19th century, resident English workers and businessmen brought football, in addition to the traditional equestrian sports, into the western Rhineland. The club was founded on 16 December 1900 by a group of eighteen high school students. Knowing that another team had already taken the name 1. FC Aachen, the new club was christened FC Alemannia, using the Latin word for Germany (see Alamannia). The First World War devastated the club: the pre-war membership of 200 was reduced to a mere 37 by the conflict. In early 1919 Alemannia merged with local sports club Aachener Turnverein 1847 to become TSV Alemannia Aachen 1900. Their new partner's interest was primarily in gymnastics rather than football and as a result the union was short-lived, with the clubs splitting again in 1924. The city of Aachen is very near the Belgian and Dutch borders and as a result Alemannia has had frequent contact with clubs from those countries. Their first game was against the Belgian side R. Dolhain F.C., one of that country's earliest clubs. There are intensive and friendly contacts with the Dutch professional club Roda JC Kerkrade. Both clubs have the same club colors. The team played in the Rhineland-Westphalia FA and won its first championship there in 1907, before joining the newly formed Westdeutsche Fussball Verband in 1909. The club grew steadily as interest in football increased. They qualified for the Rheingauliga in 1921, built…
