History
Founded on 2 July 1957, ''FC'' acknowledges ''TSV Germania Nöttingen'', established prior to World War I, as a predecessor side. ''Germania'' folded in 1927.
The modern day successor rose slowly and steadily, out of B-class football into A-class in 1969, on into the Bezirksliga Pforzheim in 1972, the Landesliga Mittelbaden in 1996, the
Verbandsliga Nordbaden (V) in 1997, and the
Oberliga Baden-Württemberg (IV) in 2002. On reaching the
Regionalliga Süd (III) in 2004 ''FC'' stumbled and was relegated after finishing in last place. The club currently plays in the fifth tier Oberliga Baden-Württemberg as a lower table side.

In 2010–11, the club lead the Oberliga for most of the season, but eventually missed out on the title and promotion to
Waldhof Mannheim when it lost the last two games of the season. A third-place finish in the Oberliga qualified the club for the promotion play-offs to the
Regionalliga Südwest, where it defeated
FSV Salmrohr and earned promotion. After only one season in the Regionalliga the club was relegated to the Oberliga again in 2015. Finishing runners-up in the Oberliga in 2015–16 Nöttingen was once more promoted to the Regionalliga after a play-off after four-all draw with
