Preußen Münster also fields teams in tennis, athletics, futsal, handball, fistball, darts and esports.

The club was founded as FC Preußen on 30 April 1906 and has its roots in a group formed at the Johann-Conrad-Schlaun Grammar School.

After successfully applying for the Western German League system, the team initially competed in the second tier.

[1] In 1933, Preußen advanced to the Gauliga Westfalen, one of sixteen top-flight leagues established through the re-organization of German football under the Third Reich.

That arrival was accompanied by some notoriety, as Preußen Münster became the first German football club to build a team by buying players, something previously unheard of in a country committed to the ideal of amateurism.

Siegfried Rachuba, Adolf Preissler, Rudolf Schulz, Felix Gerritzen, and Josef Lammers formed a front five dubbed by the press as the "Hundred-Thousand-Mark Line", even though that much money never did change hands.

[2] The investment paid dividends as the club appeared in the 1951 national final in front of 107,000 spectators at Berlin's Olympic Stadium against 1.

After Wellerdieck and other staff of the club's management resigned due to financial difficulties and accusations of tax fraud in 1978, the decline of Preußen Münster continued.

Management subsequently invested significant financial resources into a high-profile team of experienced second- and third-tier players in pursuit of immediate re-promotion.

The re-worked side finished in first place in the 2007–08 season, and so qualified for the new Regionalliga West which replaced the Oberliga in the league system.

The season 2015–16 also started with good results, but again the team lost ground in the long run and finished ninth.

After changing the coach from Horst Steffen to the former SCP-player Benno Möhlmann several high-ranking positions in the club were also manned with new personalities.

To serve as chairman Preußen Münster could win over Christoph Strässer, a former politician of the German Bundestag.

Among others, the board of directors now contains Walther Seinsch who is well known in German football for his work with then fourth tier club Augsburg.

Furthermore, with Friedrich Lucas the club's board now has a fans' representative for the first time in the history of Preußen Münster.

The logo contained the text "111 Jahre" (111 years) on top and "1906–2017" on the bottom, along with the club's usual Prussian eagle surrounded by a wreath.

[5] At the end of the 2019–20 season, despite a switch of managers from Sven Hübscher to Sascha Hildmann in the winter break, the club was relegated to Regionalliga West again.

Following the relegation Malte Metzelder resigned as director of football and was replaced by former Bundesliga player Peter Niemeyer.

Once considered one of the most modern stadiums in Germany, the arena slowly fell into disrepair which resulted in reducing the capacity from 40,000 in the 1950s to 15,000, and, after removing one stand, to the current 12,754.

In spring 2008 it was decided to renovate the Preußenstadion, to make the stadium more attractive and fitting to modern standards.

On September 16th 2024 the city announced that the building company Hellmich was awarded the contract to rebuild the stands in the west, east and north.

The close proximity between the four cities which are located within a 65-kilometer radius led the press to the name of the Bermuda Triangle of Münster, Osnabrück and Bielefeld in 3.
