SG SS Straßburg

SS Straßburg was a German association football club from the city of Straßburg, Elsass (today Strasbourg, Alsace in France). The team was founded in 1900 as FC Frankonia 1900 Straßburg (after Franconia) when the region was under German control. Following the end of World War I the territory of Alsace was returned to France and the team became part of that country's competition as Sport-Club Red-Star Straßbourg. In August 1940, after the Nazi conquest of the province, Frankonia collapsed, but was immediately re-constituted out of its former membership as Sportgemeinschaft Schutzstaffel Straßburg in September.
