Stade Dudelange was a football club from Dudelange, in southern Luxembourg. It is now a part of F91 Dudelange, which was formed by the merger of Stade, Alliance Dudelange, and US Dudelange in 1991.[1]
Stade was one of the most successful Luxembourgian clubs, winning 10 National Division championships and four Luxembourg Cup titles; to this day, the former is the third-greatest haul by any club (behind Jeunesse Esch and the defunct CA Spora Luxembourg). In its heyday of the late 1940s, Stade won four consecutive National Division titles; including the two seasons before the Second World War interrupted play, Stade won six titles back-to-back: a feat that has never been matched.
During the 2nd World War, Luxembourg being annexed by Germany, the club played in the Gauliga Moselland, winning its division in 1942 and advancing to the German championship finals round, where they lost 0-2 to FC Schalke 04. The clubs name in this period was somewhat Germanised, being FV Stadt Düdelingen.
