The 1939 German Ice Hockey Championship was the 23rd season of the German Ice Hockey Championship, the national championship of Germany. EK Engelmann Wien won the championship by defeating Berliner Schlittschuhclub in the final.

The 17 Gaus (Gau XVII - Ostmark was newly created after the Anschluss of Austria) were divided into five regional "Gau groups" - East (Gau I), West (Gau IX-XIII), South (Gau XIV-XVI), Southeast (Gau XVII), and North (Gau II-VIII). Three teams from the North, two from the West, South, and Southeast, and one team from the East group qualified for the intermediate round.

There was also a Gau XVIII created for the annexed Sudetenland of Czechoslovakia, but no teams entered in this division.

The semifinals and finals were contested at the Berliner Sportpalast in April 1939.
