TheVerbandsliga Hessen-Mitte, until 2008 namedLandesliga Hessen-Mitte, is currently the sixth tier of theGerman football league system. Until the introduction of the3. Liga in 2008 it was the fifth tier of the league system, until the introduction of theRegionalligas in 1994 the fourth tier.
The Verbandsliga Hessen-Mitte was formed in 1965 as theLandesliga Hessen-Mitte, a tier four feeder league to the thenAmateurliga Hessen.
The winner of the Verbandsliga Mitte automatically qualifies for theHessenliga, the runners-up need to compete with the runners-up of theVerbandsliga Hessen-Nord and theVerbandsliga Hessen-Süd as well as the 15th placed team of the Hessenliga for another promotion spot.
The Verbandsliga Hessen-Mitte is fed by theGruppenliga Hessen-Wiesbaden, andHessen-Gießen/Marburg. The winners of those are automatically promoted to the Verbandsliga, the runners-up play-off for another promotion spot.
Up until 1973 it was common for teams to move between Landesligen, resulting in the fact that some teams have won titles in two different Landesligen. This practice has since stopped.
Along with the renaming of theOberliga Hessen toHessenliga in 2008, theLandesliga was renamedVerbandsliga Hessen-Mitte.
