The club was founded at Easter 1907 as the Germania Ilmenau football club . Its namesake is the personified Germania . Before the FV Germania there were two other sports clubs in Ilmenau, namely the Turnverein 1860 Ilmenau and the Ilmenauer Ballspielklub 1900 (sports club of the university ). In 1909 the club was expanded to include athletics and women's handball . The first playground was the “rubble area” in the area of ​​today's sports field on Unterpörlitzer Strasse in the northeast of Ilmenau.

In the 1909/1910 season, the club was promoted from the third class ("Fußballgau Nordthüringen") to the second class of Thuringia and in 1912 the club won the Thuringia Cup against Zella-Mehlis .

The fortification of the sports field in Unterpörlitzer Strasse in the 1920s and the construction of the new stadium in Hammergrund west of Ilmenau during the Nazi era took place between the First and Second World Wars . This stadium offered much better playing conditions and could hold more spectators than the old sports field.

In 1945 the club was re-established as SG Ilmenau . As early as 1946, the sports community acted briefly as Sparta Ilmenau , but in 1952 it changed its name again to Empor Ilmenau . The BSG Empor Ilmenau was a founding member of the 1952 newly created third-class football district league Suhl , whose championship was won in the first season. At the beginning of the sixties the BSG Lok Ilmenau, founded in 1951, joined. On a sporting level, Empor Ilmenau was able to win the Suhl district championship again in 1964, but failed, as in 1952, in the promotion round to the GDR league.

In 1966 the soccer section of BSG Empor Ilmenau changed to BSG Chemie Ilmenau . The company sports association then carried this designation , with minor changes (from 1966 Chemie Glas , from 1977 Chemie Industrie-Werke (IW) ) until the fall of the Berlin Wall. In 1972, after winning the district championship, it was promoted to the second-rate GDR league for the first time , where the club played a total of twelve seasons until 1991. The club was relegated four times during this period, but returned again and again after winning the district championship in 1975/76, 1977/78, 1984/85 and 1987/88. In addition, the club took part in the FDGB Cup 14 times , but never got past the second round. The team achieved this in 1982 and in 1987 after a 3-1 win against Energie Cottbus .

After the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1990 the structures in the club were changed, adapted to the all-German standard and the name changed back to SV Germania Ilmenau . Many players migrated to other regions of Germany, so that the level in the club fell and he was relegated from the GDR League to the Thuringian League and from her to the state class West. In 1994 you could get promoted back to the Thuringian League, before another relegation to the state class West followed in 1996. From 2002 the club played in the national class east. Only in 2006 followed the renewed promotion to the Thuringian League, from which they were relegated again in 2011. After seven years in the national class and initial legitimate aspirations for promotion, twelve players left the team in 2018, which was fourteenth and last in 2019, relegated to the regional league. Since it was possible to stay, since the league was occupied by only 14 instead of 16 teams, the board withdrew the team from the division at the end of the season.

Since 2001 there has also been a women's soccer team at SV Germania Ilmenau, which currently also plays in the Thuringian League (women). The SV also provides a basketball and table tennis team .
