History
changeThe club was founded in 1910. They merged with Olympia, Lagerhaus and KAC before the First World War. In 1933, they were promoted to the top Austrian league for the first time. In 1941 there was a merger with FC Franz-Josef-Land (today KSC Donaustadt) from the 3rd class. The merger club played in the 2nd class until 1944. Afterwards, promotion to the 1st class (2nd level) was achieved. In 1947 the merger was dissolved. After relegation, the team was unable to recover for a long time before being promoted back to the Vienna League in 1955 under President Karl Eipeldauer.
In 2005 they reached their promotion to the Regionalliga East. They were relegated back to the Vienna City League as bottom of the table. After two years in the city league, they were relegated to the Vienna Oberliga B in 2008/09. SV Donau returned to the Vienna City League after two years through the merger with SV Süssenbrunn. In the 2015/16 season the fighting team reached second place in the table. This was enough for promotion, so SV Donau has been competing in the Vienna City League since the 2017/18 season. In the 2021/22 season promotion to the Regionalliga East was narrowly missed.
