Which club has won the most Bundesliga titles?

Bayern Munich is undoubtedly the most successful club in German soccer, having won more league titles than any other club. They have also won the UEFA Champions League six times. Bayern’s sporting success is backed up by its financial strength, with the club being the most valuable German club and the fifth most valuable in Europe overall. However, things have not always been easy for the Bavarian giants: their dominance over the league has been strongly criticized, and their own members have spoken out against the club’s sponsorship deal with Qatar Airways. Nevertheless, Bayern’s position at the very top of German soccer seems unlikely to change any time soon.
