German Football Championship Titles by Club
Key Findings
About This Dataset
German Football Championship Titles by ClubBayern Munich stand alone with 35 titles, nearly four times second-placed 1. FC Nurnberg on nine and more than every other club on this list combined. The gap is the widest of any major European league, exceeding even Juventus's lead in Italy. History splits the list neatly: Nurnberg's nine and Greuther Furth's three were won almost entirely before the Second World War, while Bayern's dominance is overwhelmingly a Bundesliga-era phenomenon. Borussia Dortmund on eight and Schalke 04 on seven represent the Ruhr industrial heartland, and Hamburger SV's six and VfB Stuttgart's five complete a competitive middle tier. Lokomotive Leipzig's three titles are a reminder of the separate East German championship.
