Though they won the Hungarian NB I in 1999–2000, recently they played in the second league, until the team withdrew in March 2009, ceasing its operations.

The team was founded in 1952 and one year later they were promoted to the Hungarian first division under the name Sztálinvárosi Vasmű Építők.

In 1998 they entered the NB I. under the name Dunaferr SE and won their first and only Hungarian championship in 2000.

Unfortunately the Dunaferr company ended their support of the men's football team, and in 2004 when the NB I. returned from a 12-team format to a 16-team format they were unable to return and all football operations ended.

In the 3rd round they tied against Rosenborg 2–2 in Hungary, but lost in Norway 1–2, ending their only Champions League run.
