EV Rosenheim was an ice hockey team in the Upper Bavarian town of Rosenheim, Germany.

After early beginnings in 1928, teams began to pop up in the city in earnest after World War II. One of them was EV Rosenheim.

With the construction of a new ice rink in 1961, the club received a permanent home ground, which allowed for regular training. Three years later, in 1963-64, EV Rosenheim earned promotion to the Oberliga, then the second level of German hockey.

The club finished second in the Oberliga in 1971-72, which earned them promotion to the top-level Eishockey-Bundesliga for the following season. However, after a last-place finish in the league, they were relegated. The club returned to the Bundesliga in 1975, and played there through 1978.

EV Rosenheim went bankrupt in 1978 and were replaced in the Bundesliga by SB/DJK Rosenheim.
