History
Dinamo-2 Minsk was founded in 1992 as a reserve team for Dinamo Minsk, replacing Dinamo-d Minsk, which competed in Soviet Reserves Top League before the dissolution of the USSR. Dinamo-2 spent the 1992 season in Belarusian First League and won the tournament. In order to get promoted, Dinamo-2 separated from its parent and became an independent team. They were renamed to FC Belarus Minsk for the 1992–93 season and finally to FC Dinamo-93 Minsk in 1993.

FC Dinamo-93 Minsk was quite successful. They finished in second place once (1993–94) and three times in third place (1992–93, 1994–95 and 1995). They also won the Belarusian Cup in 1995 and reached the final 1997. Due to these results, Dinamo-93 were able to play in European Cups (Cup Winners' Cup in 1995–96, UEFA Cup in 1996–97 and Intertoto Cup in 1997).

In 1998, after the first half of the season, Dinamo-93 withdrew from the competition due to lack of finances and was disbanded.
