The club was formed on 1 July 2013 from a merger of BFC Viktoria 1889 and Lichterfelder FC.
The club led 2020–21 Regionalliga Nordost when the Northeastern German Football Association (NOFV) decided to end the season prematurely after eleven rounds played due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The team had won all eleven matches played during the short season.
BFC Viktoria 1889, on the other hand, played its home matches at the Friedrich-Ebert-Stadion in the locality of Tempelhof of the borough of Tempelhof-Schöneberg.
[12] The club was finally allowed to play at the Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn-Sportpark in the locality of Prenzlauer Berg in the borough of Pankow.
The operating permit for the Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn-Stadion originally expired on 31 December 2020 and the complex is awaiting a major redevelopment.
