1.FC Nürnberg’s badge is a simple red circular crest with a white inner ring and bold white “1. FCN” lettering in the centre. The design has no animal, shield, crown or city landmark, relying instead on the club’s initials and traditional colours.

The initials stand for 1. Fußball-Club Nürnberg, while the red and white palette matches the club’s official colours. The badge’s minimal style reflects the club’s historic identity as “Der Club,” a nickname earned during Nürnberg’s early dominance of German football.

1.FC Nürnberg was founded on 4 May 1900 and became one of Germany’s most successful early football clubs, winning multiple national championships before the Bundesliga era. Its name and initials became strong enough to carry the badge without extra symbolism.

The modern roundel has been used in its current form since 2011, refining earlier circular FCN badges while keeping the same direct red-and-white identity.
