The 1952-53 Austrian football championship was organized by the Austrian Football Association. The  Staatsliga  B served as  seond tier. It included clubs from  Vienna, Lower Austria, Burgenland, Upper Austria and Styria. The Tauern League  was the second tier for Salzburg and Carinthia, the Arlberg League for Tyrol and  Vorarlberg. They were organized on an amateur basis. The regional leagues of the federal states served as the third tier.

FK Austria Wien won the Austrian football championship for the fifth time this season. Grazer SC, VfB Union Mödling and Salzburger AK 1914  were relegated. This meant that all teams promoted from the previous season were immediately relegated. Wiener Sport-Club (Champion Staatsliga B), Wiener AC (2.
