The ESV Ingolstadt is a general sports club in Ingolstadt, Bavaria, formed on 15 February 1919.[1]

Until 2004, the club operated a football department but after a merger with local rival MTV Ingolstadt to form FC Ingolstadt 04 the footballers left for the new club.

The club has over 1,600 members in 21 sports departments.[2] The club is associated with the German railways, as evident by the term railway sports club in its name (German: Eisenbahner Sportverein), and is a member of the Association of German railway sports clubs, the VDES.
