The 2013–14 season of the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg, the highest association football league in the state of Baden-Württemberg, was the sixth season of the league at tier five (V) of the German football league system and the 36th season overall since establishment of the league in 1978. The regular season started on 9 August 2013 and finished on 24 May 2014.[3]

The league was won by FC Astoria Walldorf which thereby earned promotion to the Regionalliga Südwest for 2014–15. Runners-up TSV Grunbach declined to take part in the promotion round to the Regionalliga and instead withdrew to the Kreisliga after failed merger talks with 1. CfR Pforzheim.[4] Third placed FC Nöttingen took part in the promotion round instead and defeated FSV Salmrohr, thereby earning promotion to the Regionalliga. 1. FC Heidenheim completely withdrew its reserve team from league football while 1. FC Bruchsal and SV Oberachern were relegated to the Verbandsligas.

Standings

The league featured four new clubs with FV Ravensburg and 1. FC Heidenheim II promoted from the Verbandsliga Württemberg, SV Oberachern from the Verbandsliga Südbaden and 1. FC Bruchsal from the Verbandsliga Baden. No club had been relegated from the Regionalliga Südwest to the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg in the previous season.
