TSV Schwaben Augsburg - History

History

Local bylaws required the formation of a fire brigade and in 1848 the members of TV also formed the Augsburger Freiwillige Feuerwehr. In 1853 TV was banned for political reasons by authorities fearful of democratic leanings, but managed to carry on as a physical fitness group until being re-established in 1860. Some members left the club in 1863 to form MTV Augsburg, the first of several clubs spawned by the departure of TV including TSV 1871 Augsburg, TSV 1875 Göggingen, MTV 1889 Augsburg, and TSG 1890 Thannhausen. In 1907 former TV members also established FC Augsburg.

MTV 1863 Augsburg had re-united with its parent club in 1868 and in 1919, after the end of World War I, MTV 1889 also returned to the fold. That same year the club was also joined by the members of SV Augsburg which had been established in 1905 as FC Pfersee.

    The steps toward the emancipation of women are first intellectual, then industrial, lastly legal and political. Great strides in the first two of these stages already have been made of millions of women who do not yet perceive that it is surely carrying them towards the last.
