The Greek athletic club Gymnastikos Syllogos Kymis 1893, or G.S. Kymis 1893, was originally founded in the year 1893. G.S. Kymis was one of the first Greek sports clubs, and the club's gym was used to train Greek athletes that competed at the first modern Olympics in 1896. G.S. Kymis was also one of the original 28 founding clubs of the Hellenic Amateur Athletic Association (SEGAS) in 1897. In 1907, G.S. Kymis ceased operations as an active sporting club.
In 2010, an ownership group re-founded the club G.S. Kymis, as a legal continuation and rights successor of the original G.S. Kymis 1893 club. The club was re-founded using the same emblem that the original club used, the Greek Goddess Athena.
At the beginning of the 2010–11 season, the club joined the 3rd class of the local regional ESKA division, and managed to directly achieve a promotion to the ESKA local regional second division. In the following season, Kymis maintained its previous season's impetus, and in the next summer, it gained another promotion to the 1st class of the local regional ESKA league.
