Hamburger SV The city's biggest club
As the largest club in Hamburg, HSV is an important economic factor and one of the city's sporting flagships.
Tradition is important to HSV: six German championships, three German Cups and the European Cup of Champions are among the club's greatest achievements. Personalities such as "Charly" Dörfel, Kevin Keegan, Ernst Happel and, last but not least, Hamburg's honorary citizen Uwe Seeler have left their mark on the club's 125-year history.
Today, HSV has more than 100,000 members and around 3 million fans. The club's home ground is the 57,000-seat Volksparkstadion.
In addition to the HSV Museum, the stadium also houses the HSV office, the fan restaurant "Die Raute" and an HSV fan shop. Regular stadium tours offer a behind-the-scenes look at the team's home ground.
