History

In 1952, the team was founded as a part of the association football team Klosterneuburg SV. After numerous mergers the team eventually was named Klosterneuburg BC and in 1970, it promoted to the ÖBL, the Austrian First Division.

The 80s were the golden years for the club. They won their first national title in 1978 and from 1983 till 1990 they won the ÖBL 8 times in a row.

In 2012, they were the second team in Austrian basketball history to win the "Title Triple"; they took all the three major trophies (League, Cup and Supercup) that year.
