History
The club was established as the gymnastics club Turnverein Hirschaid on 15 June 1913. A football department was formed within the club in 1920 and became independent on 30 August 1924 as SpVgg Hirschaid. The footballers re-joined their parent club following World War II on 11 November 1945 and the reunited club took on its present name.

The footballers managed a single season advance to the Amateuroberliga Bayern (V) in the 1978–79 season, but were immediately relegated. They also appeared in the opening round of the DFB-Pokal (German Cup) in 1981, where they were put out by Würtzburger Kickers (2:1)

The club became a founding member of the Bezirksoberliga Oberfranken in 1988 and the leagues first champion. It played in the Landesliga Bayern-Nord for a season in 198–90 but was relegated again back to the Bezirksoberliga. The club quickly declined, dropping out of the Bezirksoberliga in 1992 and the Bezirksliga below in 1994. A period in the lower amateur leagues followed that only ended in the early 2000s. TSV once more advanced to the Bezirksoberliga and finished as high as third there but dropped back to the Bezirksliga again in 2009. After four seasons in the Bezirksliga the club came close to relegation to the Kreisliga in 2014 but ultimately survived. The following season the club had to enter the relegation play-off and lost, so it dropped down to the Kreisliga.
