The club was founded after the unification of the clubs "Razvitie" and "Botev" on April 10, 1913 at two o'clock in the afternoon on the field near the Russian Monument, its first protocol book states. The team colours were then white and black. In 1926 "Slavia" became the champion of Bulgaria for the first time.
