The 1980–81 season of the European Cup Winners' Cup was won by FC Dinamo Tbilisi in the final against FC Carl Zeiss Jena.

This win was the high point of the Georgian side and is still the club's greatest achievement.

The competition included the Real Madrid C.F. reserve team Castilla CF, who qualified as the 1979–80 Copa del Rey runners-up.
