The FSV Ronneburg traces its origins back to the Ronneburg workers' football club, which was founded in 1920. Shortly after it was founded, it changed its name to Spvg.Ronneburg. After the National Socialists came to power, the club was banned in 1933, and several club members joined VfB Ronneburg, which was also founded in 1920. After the end of the Second World War, the Soviet occupying power banned all sports clubs in their zone, including in Ronneburg.

After a transitional phase with provisionally formed sports associations, the BSG IFA Ronneburg was founded on April 15, 1950 after the company sports associations (BSG) were introduced in East Germany by the Ronneburg car wheel and rim factory. After the formation of the central " Motor Sports Association " for the field of mechanical engineering and vehicle construction, the BSG was renamed Motor Süd in 1952, later BSG Motor Ronneburg. In 1959 the SDAG Wismut took over the sponsorship, and the BSG was given a new name with Wismut Ronneburg. From the beginning, the BSG maintained several sports sections, of which handball, boxing and soccer were the most famous. The most successful were the handball men who played in the second-rate GDR league for several years.

As after the political turning point of 1989 and the associated economic changes, the Wismut stopped promoting the company sports community. BSG members then founded the registered association SSV Ronneburg in 1990 , which essentially continued the sports operations of the dissolved BSG. In 1995 this club dissolved again and the individual sports areas founded their own clubs, e.g. B. ASC Ronneburg (boxing, judo), HSV Ronneburg (handball), KSV Ronneburg (bowling) and finally the FSV Ronneburg for football.

Development of the sport of football

Up until the end of the Second World War, football was only played on a district level in the mining town of then 8,000 inhabitants. Even after the end of the war, nothing changed in terms of the circle scale. It was not until 1952 that BSG Motor Süd was promoted to the fourth class district class at the time. From 1959 the BSG Wismut tried with several attempts to establish itself in the third-class district league Gera from 1963 . In the seasons 1959 and 1961/62 it was each a one-year guest appearance, only from 1967 did the Wismut team manage to stay in the district league for six years. In 1973, however, she rose again from bottom of the table with a 7-point deficit. This was followed by short stays in the third class between 1975 and 1989. Wismut Ronneburg experienced the end of the GDR football game in 1990 with the final placement 4th in the district class.

For a game in 1954, BSG Motor attracted attention beyond the district scale. The team had qualified for the GDR-wide FDGB soccer cup competition and met in the first round against the Karl-Marx-Städter district league team Motor Zschopau . Since the Ronneburgers played one class lower, they had home rights, but were still clearly defeated with 1: 5 and were immediately eliminated from the cup competition.

The DFB game operation from 1990 began the SSV Ronneburg in the district class Thuringia. In 1997, the FSV was promoted to the then eight-class district league, in which it initially played in the top group. From 2000 it was only enough for the bottom third of the table, and in 2009 the FSV had to relegate to the regional league. In 2010 he was immediately promoted to the newly established eight-class regional class (season 1). Since 2012, the regional classes from the Thuringian Football Association were transferred to the responsibility of the 9 new district technical committees as district upper leagues.
