About FC Wettingen

FC Wettingen is a Swiss football club from Wettingen in the canton of Aargau, founded in 1931. For decades it played in the lower Swiss leagues before reaching the Nationalliga B in 1969 and spending a single season in the top flight in 1969–70. The club plays its home matches at the Stadion Altenburg.

Wettingen returned to the Nationalliga A in 1982 and, after a brief relegation, enjoyed the most successful season in its history in 1988–89, finishing fourth and qualifying for the UEFA Cup. In the 1989–90 competition it knocked out Dundalk before giving Napoli, the holders, a tough contest in the second round.

Financial problems led to the club's bankruptcy in 1993. It was refounded the same year as FC Wettingen 93 and in 2012 took back its original name, continuing in the regional leagues of Swiss football.
