History
The club was founded on 1 August 1920 as ''Fußball Verein Teutonia Würges''. By 1922 the club was known as ''FV Borussia Würges'' and in 1924 adopted its current name. The team made its first showing in the Amateur
Oberliga Hessen (III) in 1983–84 and was sent down the following season after losing a relegation playoff to
Tuspo Ziegenhain (0–1). They returned to third tier football for a single season in 1991.
A second-place finish in the
Landesliga Hessen-Mitte (V) and victory in the subsequent promotion playoff elevated the side to the Oberliga Hessen (IV) in 1996 for a two season long turn. After a decade in the Landesliga, RSV Würges returned to the Oberliga on the strength of a 2006 title win. The club also has two
