==History==
[[Image:SV Wacker Nordhausen.png|thumb|90px|left|Logo of predecessor side SV Wacker 05 Nordhausen]]
The football team ''FC Wacker 05 Nordhausen'' was founded on 1 November 1905 as an offshoot of a Protestant youth club in the city. By 14 June 1906 the team had broadened its scope to become the sports club ''SV Wacker 05 Nordhausen '' and in 1908 merged with local side ''Ballsport-Club Mars Nordhausen'' which had been formed in 1906. Until 1918 the club played as ''SV Wacker-Mars Nordhausen'' when it was renamed ''1. SV Wacker 05 Nordhausen''. Playing in the VMBV (Verband Mitteldeutscher Ballspiel Vereine or Federation of Middle German Ball Playing Teams), ''Wacker'' participated in the early rounds of the league championships in the mid- to late 20s, but without any success.

After the end of World War II occupying Allied authorities ordered the dissolution of all organizations in Germany, including sports and football clubs. The former membership of ''Wacker'' reorganized as ''SG Nordhausen'' in 1946 and this team went on to become the football department of the sports club ''BSG Motor Nordhausen'' in 1949. The club played briefly as ''KWU/Lok Nordhausen'' after a merger with an industrial club. From 1951 on the team played as ''BSG Motor Nordhausen-West'' in second tier [[East Germany|East German]] football. ''Motor'' enjoyed some modest success in the early 80s but then slipped and was relegated to the third division Bezirkliga Erfurt in 1989.

After [[German reunification]] in 1990 the football department separated from the sports club to form ''FSV Wacker 90''. The newly independent team took up play in the [[NOFV-Oberliga Süd]] (III) in the 1991–92 season and played at that level for seven years, interrupted by three seasons in the [[Regionalliga Nordost]] (III) from 1995 to 1998. During the 1990s the club made three appearances in the [[DFB-Pokal]], in [[1992–93 DFB-Pokal|1992–93]], [[1996–97 DFB-Pokal|1996–97]] and [[1997–98 DFB-Pokal|1997–98]] but was knocked out in the first round at each occasion. After relegation back to the NOFV-Oberliga Süd (IV) in 1998 the club slowly declined.  Financial problems drove the club further down to the [[Thüringenliga|Landesliga Thüringen]] (V) in 2000–01 before they finally landed in the Landesklasse Thuringen-Ost (VI) in 2002.

After a decade of lower league play the club won the Thüringenliga in 2011–12 and the NOFV-Oberliga Süd the season after to make a return to the Regionalliga Nordost where it plays today.<ref name="Fussball" >[http://www.fussball.de/mannschaft/fsv-wacker-nordhausen-fsv-wacker-90-nordhausen-thueringen/-/saison/1415/team-id/011MICN18C000000VTVG0001VTR8C1K7#!/section/mediastream FSV Wacker 90 Nordhausen at Fussball.de] {{in lang|de}} accessed: 12 February 2015</ref>
