TSV 1860 Munich is a German professional football club based in Munich, the capital city of Bavaria. One of the oldest clubs in Germany, it has participated in European competitions in a total of eleven seasons in its history. The club's first participation, which came in the 1964–65 European Cup Winners' Cup, saw them reach the final. Since then, the club has taken part in all of the recognised major competitions, including twice qualifying for the European Cup / Champions League.

History 1964–65 European Cup Winners' Cup Following their victory in the 1964 DFB-Pokal final against Eintracht Frankfurt, 1860 Munich made their first foray into European competition in the 1964–65 European Cup Winners' Cup.This proved successful, as the club was able to negotiate ties against opposition from Luxembourg, Portugal, Poland and Italy to reach the final, where they played English side West Ham United. Ultimately, 1860 Munich fell just short, losing the final 2–0.

1965–66 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup 1860 Munich qualified for Europe for a second successive season by virtue of their fourth place finish in the 1964–65 Bundesliga, which gave them a place in the first round of the 1965–66 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup. As with the previous season, they made relatively straightforward progress through the rounds, but fell again to an English side, this time Chelsea in the quarter-final.

1966–67 European Cup 1860 Munich's third successive European season came as a result of winning the league title in the 1965–66 Bundesliga, which gave them qualification for the European Cup for the first time. The club made it to the second round where they were eliminated by reigning champions Real Madrid. Round Opposition Home Away AggregateFirst round Omonia8–02–110–1Second round Real Madrid1–01–32–3

1967–68 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup Having finished second in the 1966–67 Bundesliga, 1860 Munich qualified for Europe once again, returning to the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup, reaching the second round where they were eliminated by English side Liverpool.

However, qualification was obtained through a 12th place finish in the 1967–68 Bundesliga, an indication of the club's slide from the heights it enjoyed a few years earlier. Playing Legia Warsaw of Poland, they failed to get past the opening round, the first time that 1860 Munich had failed to win its opening European tie.

The club's 10th place finish in the 1968–69 Bundesliga gave them their place in the competition, but for the second successive season they failed to get past the opening round. Following their elimination, 1860 Munich would not return to European competition for 27 years.

The club made its first return to the Bundesliga for a decade and a half in 1994, finishing 14th in their first season back in the top flight of German football. The following season improved, with an 8th place finish seeing them qualify for the 1996 UEFA Intertoto Cup, the first time the club had qualified for European football of any kind since 1969. Drawn in Group 8 against teams from Russia, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria and Poland, 1860 Munich finished second, missing out on the competition's semi-finals.

1997–98 UEFA Cup The 1996–97 Bundesliga saw two-thirds of its participants qualify for Europe in one form or another, with both Borussia Dortmund and Schalke having won European trophies that season. Borussia Dortmund's victory in the Champions League saw them go into the following season's competition, meaning their place in the 1997–98 UEFA Cup for finishing third in the league passed down the league table. Similarly, fourth-placed VfB Stuttgart won the 1997 DFB-Pokal final, and went into the Cup Winners' Cup, leading to another UEFA Cup spot passing down the league table. This led to seventh-placed 1860 Munich, who had originally qualified for the Intertoto Cup, instead finding themselves with a spot in the UEFA Cup. They were ultimately eliminated in the second round by Austrian side Rapid Wien.

This was their first time in Europe's top club competition since they won the Bundesliga title in 1966, and saw them enter at the third qualifying round stage, where they were beaten by English side Leeds United. The format of the competition meant that losers at that stage would drop into the UEFA Cup.
