VfB Wien (full name: Verein für Bewegungsspiele) was a sports club in Vienna, Austria. Its hockey section was founded in 1919.

The club initially played bandy hockey, partaking in a friendly match against Wiener EV on November 28, 1920, in which they lost 20-0. In 1921-22, VfB took part in the Austrian Bandy Cup.

VfB later switched to playing ice hockey with a puck, and competed in the Austrian Hockey Championship under its various names and forms from 1923 to 1932. They finished as high as third place in 1928.

In 1932, hockey in Austria was reorganized into two regional competitions, the Vienna and Provincial championships, with the top teams qualifying for the State Championship. VfB played two seasons in the second-level Viennese competition, the Klasse 2.a.

On November 13, 1934, the club withdrew from the Austrian Ice Hockey Federation and later folded.
