List of SV Werder Bremen seasons

This is a list of the seasons played by Werder Bremen from 1900 when the club was represented at the founding of the German Football Association (DFB) at Leipzig to the most recent seasons. The club's achievements in all major national and international competitions as well as the top scorers are listed. Players with a bold and coloured background were also top scorers of whichever division Werder were in during that season. The list is separated into three parts, coinciding with the three major episodes of German football:


 * Before 1945 the German league structure was changing rapidly. The end of World War II marks the end of this episode.
 * From 1945–1963 a German league structure without a nationwide league was maintained without greater changes.
 * Since 1963 a nationwide league, the Bundesliga, exists.

Werder have won the Bundesliga four times. The club have also won the DFB-Pokal six times, and have won one European title, the Cup Winner's Cup in 1992.

Bremen have been relegated twice, in 1979–80 and 2020–21; on both occasions, they were promoted back to the first tier at the first attempt.
