    The 1933–34 Gauliga Bayern was the inaugural season of the league, one of the 16 Gauligas in Germany at the time. It was the first tier of the football league system in Bavaria (German:Bayern) from 1933 to 1945. The Gauliga Bayern had replaced the Bezirksliga Bayern which had been played in two divisions, north and south, as the top tier of football in Bavaria at the end of the 1932–33 seasons.

    The Gauligas in Germany replaced the seven regional championships and a large number of local leagues that existed in Germany until then and were established after the

    rise of the Nazis to power in 1933.[1][2]

    The league champions 1. FC Nürnberg qualified for the

    Viktoria 89 Berlin 2–1 Nürnberg advanced to the final where it lost 2–1 to FC Schalke 04. For 1. FC Nürnberg it was the seventh time the club reached the final and the first time it lost, having won five national championships from 1920 to 1927 and also participated in the inconclusive 1922 final.[3][4] For Nürnberg it was the first of seven Gauliga championships the club would win in the era from 1933 to 1944.[5]

    After attempts to establish professionalism in German football in 1932 the rise of the Nazis to power put a sudden end to this, forcing all football leagues in Germany, including the Gauligas, to remain strictly amateur.

    Richard Dombi had to leave the club because of their Jewish background, the club declined.[8]
