FSV Barleben 1911^[2] is a football club from the unified municipality of Barleben in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt. The home of the club is the sports field at Barleber Anger. The biggest success in the club's history is the winning of the national championship title 2014/15.

The first team has been playing in the Verbandsliga^[3] Sachsen-Anhalt since 2018 after the voluntary withdrawal from the southern relay of the Oberliga Nordost and has been trained by Christoph Grabinski since July 2021.

The chronicle of Barleber football goes back to 1911, when the first sports club with a football section was founded. In the early years, however, the association did not appear nationwide. After the end of the Second World War, the club was dissolved in 1945 at the instigation of the Soviet occupying power, but sports activities continued to exist. In the course of the reorganization of company sports on a production basis, the BSG VEM Barleben was created in 1948, a company sports community, which was joined by the sports community formed in 1945. In the following years, the club, renamed BSG Motor Barleben in 1950, achieved some success. For example, they belonged to the Bezirksliga Magdeburg from 1952 to 1954 and 1956/1957. From 1957 until the reunification of both German states, Barleben played continuously in the district class for many years, but in 1987/88 he was relegated to the district league. With the end of the GDR, the BSG Motor Barleben was refounded into SG Motor Barleben.

After the introduction of the DFB league system in East Germany, SG Motor Barleben therefore found itself at district level for the 1990/91 season. In the mid-1990s, Barleber football managed to return to FSA level with the promotion to the state class.

In 1997, the footballers went their own way and left SG Motor Barleben and founded their own club. In tradition to the first Barleben football team, they called the club FSV Barleben 1911. At the end of the 2003/04 season, the FSV was relegated from the state class after long-standing affiliation. Only the absence of relegated in the Ohrekreisliga prevented the further decline of the club in 2005. It was not until 2008 that the Red-Blacks found they back in national football, whereby with a new promotion they even succeeded in the march into the now seventh-class state league. Although the club had to accept the direct relegation, the immediate re-promotion to the Landesliga Nord followed in the year of the 100th anniversary. After the placements three and four, FSV Barleben rose undefeated to the Verbandsliga Saxony-Anhalt with first place in 2014. In 2015, winning the state championship of Saxony-Anhalt succeeded in the first promotion to the Oberliga, so that the club was active for the first time in the fifth highest division of the DFB league system in the 2015/16 season. In the new league, the team of coach Mario Middendorf with ninth place already managed the safe class preservation with a few match days before the end of the season, which with a 13. Place was also realized in the following season. After the third season in the Oberliga, the first under coach Jörn Schulz, and the renewed sporting class retention, the club withdrew to the Verbandsliga for economic reasons.

The club usually plays its home games on the sports field at Barleber Anger, which has a lawn (main square) and an artificial turf field. However, if games are due that require a higher level of security or if more than 1,000 spectators are expected to play at home, they will not take place on the home sports field.
