The first official Austrian Championships for men were held in 1898 in Vienna, and for women in 1913 in Prague.

History

The German-Austrian Figure Skating Championships were held until 1895. The first Austrian Figure Skating Championships for men were held in 1898 in Vienna. In 1913, the first Austrian Figure Skating Championships for women were held in Prague.

After the Anschluss – the annexation of the Federal State of Austria into the German Reich in March 1938 – "Gau-Championships" ("Ostmark" Championships) were held instead of Austrian Championships.[1] In 1944 and 1945, no championships were held at all. After World War II ended and Austria regained its independence, the Austrian Championships resumed.

The 2026 Austrian Championships are scheduled to be held 10–13 December in Innsbruck.[2]
