Formation
FC Ingolstadt 04, commonly known as FC Ingolstadt, is a German football club based in Ingolstadt, Bavaria. The club was established in 2004 through the merger of two local clubs: ESV Ingolstadt-Ringsee, founded in 1919, and MTV Ingolstadt, which dates back to 1881. This merger was a response to the financial struggles of ESV, which had gone bankrupt earlier that year, leaving its players to join the newly formed FC Ingolstadt 04.

After World War II, ESV underwent several name changes, ultimately becoming known as Eisenbahner-Sportverein Ingolstadt. Meanwhile, MTV Ingolstadt, the larger sports club, contributed to the local sports culture but did not have a significant football presence until the merger.

Career & Clubs
ESV Ingolstadt
ESV Ingolstadt (Eisenbahner-Sportverein Ingolstadt-Ringsee e.V.) was founded in 1919 as FC Viktoria. Two years later the football players of Turnverein 1861 Ingolstadt joined the club to form VfR Ingolstadt. A number of other clubs from the Ringsee district fused with this club, but to little effect. The club's achievement amounted to not more than a couple of seasons spent in the Gauliga Bayern in 1936–38. After World War II, the club was re-constituted as VfR Ingolstadt, changed its name to Erster Sportverein Ingolstadt (First Sports Club Ingolstadt) in 1951 and then changed it again to its current form in 1953 when "E" came to stand for Eisenbahner to reflect its affiliation with the railway. ESV Ingolstadt joined the Regionalliga Süd (II) in 1963 when the Bundesliga – Germany's professional football league – was formed. After bouncing between tiers II and III, capped with two seasons spent in 2. Bundesliga Süd from 1979 to 1981, the club began a descent through tier III to Landesliga Bayern-Süd (IV), last playing in 1993–94. The sports club itself carried on until it went bankrupt in the summer of 2004 and those football players there were left to join FC Ingolstadt 04. ESV continues to operate today offering a number of other sports activities while acknowledging FC 04 on its website.
