About Koln

FC Koln are one of German football's most loved clubs, a proud Rhineland institution from Germany's fourth-largest city who have won three Bundesliga titles and built one of the most passionate fanbases in the country. Die Geissbocke (The Billy Goats) play in red and white at the RheinEnergieStadion and have been a staple of German top-flight football for most of the Bundesliga's history, with a legendary 1970s and 1980s era that produced players like Pierre Littbarski and Tony Woodcock. Founded in 1948, FC Koln play at the RheinEnergieStadion (capacity around 50,000) in Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. They compete in the Bundesliga. Key honours include 3 Bundesliga titles (1962, 1978, 1983) and 4 DFB-Pokal wins. Nicknamed Die Geissbocke (The Billy Goats), they wear red and white. FC Koln's red and white kits are a beloved part of German football's visual landscape. The 1970s and 1980s Adidas home shirts worn during the club's most successful championship era, when Koln were one of the Bundesliga's dominant forces, are iconic collector's pieces. The white kit with the red stripe from the club's 1983 Bundesliga title-winning season is especially cherished. The billy goat badge on a red and white Koln shirt is one of German football's most enduring emblems.
