Editing VfB Stuttgart (section)

===1930s and 1940s===
In 1933, VfB moved to [[MHPArena|Neckar Stadium]], the site of its current ground. German football was re-organized that same year under the [[Third Reich]] into sixteen top-flight divisions called [[Gauliga|Gauligen]]. Stuttgart played in the [[Gauliga Württemberg]] and won division titles in 1935, 1937, 1938, 1940, and 1943 before the Gauliga system collapsed part way through the 1944–45 season due to [[World War II]]. The club had an intense rivalry with [[Stuttgarter Kickers]] throughout this period.

VfB's Gauliga titles earned the team entry to the national playoff rounds, with their best result coming in 1935 when they advanced to the final where they lost 4–6 to defending champions [[FC Schalke 04|Schalke 04]], the dominant side of the era. After a third-place result at the national level in 1937, Stuttgart was not able to advance out of the preliminary rounds in subsequent appearances.
