The Landesliga Hamburg-Hammonia is the sixth tier of the German football league system and the second-highest league in the German state of Hamburg, together with the Landesliga Hamburg-Hansa.
The league was formed in 1947, alongside three other divisions on the same level in the city of Hamburg, as the Bezirksklasse Hamburg-Hammonia.
Klasse Hamburg had been operating since the end of the Second World War in 1945 and consisted of three divisions.
This meant the new Bezirksklasse in Hamburg was now the third tier of the league system, below Oberliga and Verbandsliga.
The year after, in 1950, the Amateurliga was then reduced to one single division from the two it had been operating at previously.
Additionally, teams would be moved between the three divisions according to geographical necessity, to balance them out.
In 1970, the Germania-Staffel was disbanded, leaving only the Hansa and Hammonia division on this level, as it is today.
The two remaining divisions were increased in size, Hansa to seventeen and Hammonia to sixteen.
In 1978, the Amateurligas in Hamburg were renamed to Landesliga, a name they carry to date.
The league experienced no change in the two decades from 1974 to 1994, operating on sixteen teams for all but one season.
