1964–65 Regionalliga


The 1964–65 Regionalliga was the second Regionalliga season. The league operated in five regional divisions, [Regionalliga Regionalliga Berlin (1963–74)|Berlin (1963–74)|Berlin], North, South, Southwest and West. The five league champions and the runners-up from the west, south, southwest and north then entered a promotion play-off to determine the two clubs to move up to the Bundesliga for the next season. Western and southern champions Borussia Mönchengladbach and FC Bayern Munich were promoted. Additionally, the third placed team in Berlin, SC Tasmania 1900 Berlin, was also promoted to replace Hertha BSC, which had their Bundesliga licence revoked.
