Atalanta played for the majority of the 1920s and 1930s playing in the second division, and reached Serie A for the first time in 1937. The club then enjoyed almost three years of Serie A (1940-1969), just missing out in 1958-1959. In the years following the club went through more shifts between the two top divisions, even spending a period (1981-82) as a third-tier club. However, the club it returned to the top divisions and was able to participate in several UEFA competitions--including a European Cup Winners' Trophy and two UEFA Cups between 1988 and 1990, under the guidance of coach Emiliano Mondonico. In the 2000s and 1990s, Atalanta again moved several times between Serie A and Serie B. The club was last promoted in the year 2011, and was playing in Serie A for eleven consecutive seasons after that. From 2017 to 2021 under the guidance of coach Gian Piero Gasperini the club had its highest ever league finish and also participated at the UEFA Champions League.

The 2022-23 football period, Atalanta has spent a total of 61 seasons in Serie A, 28 seasons in Serie B (winning it five times) as well as one season at Serie C. Atalanta has been in the top level among any Italian club that is not located in a city that is not a regional capital. because of its consistent performance and Serie B titles and performances in international tournaments, the club is often called"the Regina delle provinciali ("queen of the provincial clubs"). But Atalanta hasn't ever won the Scudetto or the Scudetto, and has only been awarded one trophy major that was it was the Coppa Italia trophy in 1963. The club made it to four Coppa Italia finals since then but was defeated in all of them and most recently in 2021. In international competitions Atalanta's most impressive results were in the semi-finals of 1987-88's European Cup Winners Cup (while the club was in Serie B), the quarter-finals of the 1990-91 UEFA Cup, the quarter-finals of the 2019-20 UEFA Champions League, and the quarter-finals for the 2021-22 UEFA Europa League.

Atalanta was established on the 17th of October, 1907, by students from the Liceo Classico Paolo Sarpi and was named in honor of the female athlete with the same name in Greek mythology. While it was founded immediately the football industry but it was not the first football club located within Bergamo: Football Club Bergamo was established by Swiss immigrants in 1904 before being absorbed into an additional club Bergamasca at the time of 1911. It was not recognized by the Italian Football Federation did not recognize Atalanta until 1914, and then in 1919, it announced that it would allow only just one team from Bergamo to play in the most prestigious national league (then named"the Prima Categoria). Because Atalanta along with Bergamasca were rivals and could not reach an agreement for admittance to Prima Categoria was determined by an a game of playoffs; Atalanta won this match with a score of 2-0. The two teams merged was completed in 1920, creating A new organization Atalanta Bergamasca di Ginnastica e Scherma 1907 (shortened to Atalanta Bergamasca Calcio) and setting its blue and black (nerazzurri) colors.

Atalanta was a part of Atalanta played in the Seconda Divisione, the second stage, from the beginning of the 1920s. In the 1927-28 season the club was able to win its group, and then beat Pistoiese during the finals to secure the promotion as well as the first league of second division success. The club officially opened its new venue within Borgo Santa Caterina in Borgo Santa Caterina neighborhood in 1928 and was then allowed to join Serie B, the second level of the newly restructured Italian league in 1929. After nearly a decade in Serie B, Atalanta achieved its first advancement up to Serie A in 1937 under coach Ottavio Barbieri, however, it was dropped at the conclusion year. The club was relegated back to Serie A in 1940 as champions from Serie B.

In during the 1930s and 1940s Atalanta maintained its dominance in the highest league, even though National league play was cut off from 1943 to 1945 because of World War II. Atalanta finished fifth in 1947-1948 Serie A under coach Ivo Fiorentini. This was the best league finish to date until the year. The club was regarded for being the provincee terribile (terrible provincial side) during this time period as because of its victories against popular metropolitan teams, such as that of Grande Torino, who won Serie A five times during the 1940s. Atalanta was able to finish in the mid-table during most of the 1950s, and was in Serie A until 1958, which was the year it was delegated due to allegations against match fixers. The accusations were proven to be untrue a year later, and the club was relegated back in Serie A by winning its second Serie B title.

Atalanta was the winner of at the Coppa Italia title in 1963 beating Torino by 3-1 at the end of the game due to a hat-trick scored by the striker, Angelo Domenghini. It was the team's first (and until now, the sole) significant trophy. In the early 1960s the club was first to compete at European competitions, such as those in 1961 and 1962, the Mitropa Cup, the Coppa dell'Amicizia, as well as the Coppa delle the Alpi. The club was a champion of the domestic cup, and the club was able to participate in the Europe Cup Winners' Cup. It was the club's initial important UEFA competition, but was defeated in the first round by Portuguese Club Sporting CP in the first round. The club also made several performances in the internationally-based (though they were not UEFA) cups in the 1960s, but was dropped in 1969 following an entire decade in the top league.

In the 1970s Atalanta went through several changes in between Serie A and Serie B and was in the second division for four seasons in a row between 1973 between 1973 and 1977. Although they were within Serie B at the time the club produced a number of youngsters who went on to clubs that were historically larger and even won in 1982 the FIFA World Cup with Italy. A string of difficult seasons were followed by Atalanta slide in Serie B in 1980 and Serie C1 in 1981, at the time that for it's first time the club did not play in the top two levels. This was a setback which regenerated the club, and a series of changes in management were ensuing.

In the 1996-97 season the striker Filippo Inzaghi scored 24 goals in the league, becoming the first (and until now the one and only) Atalanta player to be designated a capocannoniere (Serie A's top scorers). The club then sold a number of key players, leading it to struggle before returning back to Serie B in 1998; it would stay there until 2000, after which coach Giovanni Vavassori revived the team by recruiting youngsters from the academy in an effective promotion campaign.

In the early 2000s, Atalanta experienced more divisional shifts: it was delegated in 2002-03 (despite finishing seventh only two years before) as well as 2004-05. However, it made it up to Serie A after only one season in Serie B both times, winning the 2005-06 season.

Through the mid- and early-2010s, Atalanta generally lingered in the lower mid-table of Serie A.

A former Genoa head coach Gian Piero Gasperini took over prior to the start of the start of the 2016-17 season. Despite the initial struggles The club's performances gradually improved throughout the course of the season.

As per detail below.

The first kit adopted by Atalanta shortly after its creation had thin white and black vertical stripes. They were the club's colors until 1920 after which the club merged with its local rival Bergamasca (which featured white and blue kits) in attempt to join the Italian league. After merging, standard color white was dropped with blue and black (nerazzurri) to be the official colors of the newly formed Atalanta Bergamasca Calcio. In the initial few years after the amalgamation, club's kit were black and blue with blue quarters. Atalanta adopted its traditional vertical stripes of blue and black after a couple of years.

The home kits of Atalanta have featured blue and black vertical stripes since they were introduced during the 20th century. There have been slight variations in the thickness stripes have been observed through the years, however the club has never strayed from the traditional design of the home kit. The away kits of Atalanta have historically been predominantly white, but with a few hints of blue and black, and other small details. The third kit and goalkeeper kits haven't been able to adhere to any specific design; a variety of colours (among the most popular are red, green and light blue) as well as black) were used for these throughout the years.

Since the year 2010, Atalanta is playing its last home game in the calendar year an "Christmas Match" with specially-designed kits. The kits are auctioned off to raise funds to benefit charity.

Atalanta has been home to five crests since the team's inception that all are a representation of the club's nickname (except in the years 1984-93) colours, as well as (since 1993) The Greek mythological figure Atalanta which is from whom the name is derived by the club and also their name La Dea.

The club's initial three crests were shields that featured the name Atalanta at the top, with colored stripes to the left and a symbol in the center. The crest's original design was created in 1907, and featured the club's initial black and white stripes , as well as blue patches. In 1963, when the club had won the Coppa Italia title, the crest was updated to incorporate blue and black stripes, with a girl running representing Atalanta. The colors of the crest and representation of Atalanta were changed in the 1970s, but retained the same basic design like in the original 1963 design.

The crest in 1984 changed significantly that included the club's name, as well as the body of the running girl were taken off the crest and its form was transformed from a shield into the shape of a circle. The "classic" design featured an Atalanta-like silhouette in white head set on the background of blue and black with three concentric black, white with golden yellow and black circles. Blue, black and white were kept--as the colors of the club. Yellow was used to symbolize the golden apples that according to legend, Hippomenes tossed to Atalanta to distract her and beat her in a race.

The modern club logo was created in 1993. This crest incorporates 1984's crest in its design, however it the head of Atalanta is tilted downwards and there is no mention of that yellow circle. The names Atalanta and the year of its founding 1907 are added between the circles that is enclosed by an ellipse with the same black and blue background as the 1984 design.

It was 90 by 45 meters (295 by 148 feet) and was able to accommodate a seating capacity of 1,000 fans. Because of financial strains due to financial hardships during World War I, though, Atalanta was forced to sell the land that contained its field, which left the stadium without a place to play. In the end the philanthropist and entrepreneur Betty Ambiveri sold the Clementina field, a former site located in Seriate which hosted sports events like cycling, and the team. The new stadium was officially inaugurated in the name of Atalanta Stadium and it hosted 14,000 fans in its inaugural game with La Dominante of Genoa.

As football's popularity grew during the 20th century, Atalanta was in need of a stadium. This new arena was built in Viale Margherita (now Viale Giulio Cesare) to replace the hippodrome which was once on the spot.

The Atalanta youth system is made up of four teams of men's that play in distinct regional leagues ( Primavera, Allievi Nazionali A and B, as well as Giovanissimi Nazionali) along with two teams that compete at an local level (Giovanissimi Regionali A and).

The first person dedicated to establishing at Atalanta Youth teams is Giuseppe Ciatto. Every aspect of organisation was handled and solved by him. He also was responsible for the training of the different teams. In 1949, Atalanta was awarded their first Campionato Ragazzi.

In the mid 1950s, the former Atalanta athlete Luigi Tentorio (then Special Commissioner of the club) was convinced that it was time to make a more systematic investment in the development of youth. He decided to establish a true youth section, which had its own distinct structure and separate apart from the main team. The responsibility for the youth sector was given by Giuseppe Brolis, who created an alliance with several clubs across Friuli and the Veneto as well as Friuli region and established an scout network and young coaches.

A significant step in the development of Bergamo youth sector was made in the beginning of 1990s, in the early 1990s, when President Antonio Percassi implemented an investment policy that was new specifically at the level of youth. Percassi was able to persuade Fermo Favini to quit Como in the early 1990s and then entrusted him with the task of overseeing that sector for youth.

The Atalanta youth team did not stop growing the number of players who play for the first team, but also began to receive numerous honors in the top national leagues. From 1991 to 2014 the different youth teams have taken home 17 national championships.

Alongside the successes at young age and beyond, the Atalanta youth program is one of the best respected in Europe According to an assessment by the research center of Coverciano, Atalanta have the most successful youth program in Italy and is ranked sixth in Europe which is behind Real Madrid, Barcelona and three French teams. The parameters were the number of players from the first division created by the club. In the 2007-08 campaign, 22 youth players from the club were in the Serie A and 32 played in the Serie B and three abroad.

A 2014 worldwide analysis by"CIES Soccer Observatory" "CIES Football Observatory" has placed the Atalanta youth academy in eighth place worldwide, having the former participation of 25 youth athletes that play in the top five European leagues.
