Paris Saint-Germain Football Club, commonly referred to as Paris Saint-Germain or simply PSG, is a professional football club based in Paris, France. They compete in Ligue 1, the top division of French football. As France's most successful club, they have won 50 official honours, including twelve league titles and one major European trophy. Their home ground is the Parc des Princes, located in the 16th arrondissement of Paris near the Boulogne-Billancourt commune.
Paris Saint-Germain Football Club, an association football team based in Paris, is the joint-most decorated French team in international club competitions. PSG have won two international titles: the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup in 1996 and the UEFA Intertoto Cup in 2001. In addition, they were runners-up in the 1996 UEFA Super Cup, the 1996–97 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup and the 2019–20 UEFA Champions League. Their Cup Winners' Cup victory makes PSG the sole French side to have won this trophy as well as one of only two French clubs to have won a major European competition and the youngest European team to do so.
Paris Saint-Germain Football Club was founded in August 1970 after the merger of Paris Football Club and Stade Saint-Germain. PSG made an immediate impact, winning promotion to Division 1 and claiming the Division 2 title in their first season. Their momentum was soon checked, however, and the club split in 1972. Paris FC remained in the top flight, while PSG were administratively relegated to Division 3. Following back-to-back promotions, PSG quickly returned to the premier division in 1974 and moved into the Parc des Princes.
