From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fortuna Berlin (Berliner Fussball Club Fortuna 1894 ) was a short-lived German football club established in 1894 in Berlin. It is notable only as one of the founding clubs of the DFB (Deutscher Fussball Bund or German Football Association) in Leipzig in 1900.
The club played in the Verband Deutscher Ballspiel Vereine (Federation of German Ballplay Clubs) as a first division side from 1898 and 1904 before slipping to lower tier competition. BFCF also spent at least one season (1909) in second division play in the Berliner Ballspiel Bund. Throughout its existence the club was a lower table side with their best result being a second place finish in 1898. After World War I Fortuna merged with Britannia Berlin to form present-day side Berliner SV.
