FK Viktoria Žižkov ranks among the oldest football clubs in the Czech Republic. It was founded by group of students in 1903 in the city of Žižkov (since 1922 part of Praha). Viktoria's main successes fall into the period between the world wars until — until 1948 it was the third most successful Czechoslovak club. After the second world war and the beginning of communism in 1948 it descended to the lower leagues where it remained until 1993 when it returned back to the highest league. Viktoria achieved many successes between 1993 and 2003. It was the winner of the national cup in 1994 and 2001 and it played European cups during four seasons. In 2004, after very poor results and a corruption scandal it descended again to the second league where it remains until now. Viktoria is the Czechoslovak champion from the year of 1928.
Around the turn of 2007 some youths were chased from the ground after trying to plant shrubs in the pitch.
