Historical chart of league performance of Austria Klagenfurt and their predecessor clubs

The emergence of the club marked the end of all efforts to establish an all-Carinthian team to play in the Austrian Football Bundesliga, pushed by the state's government under Jörg Haider. Austria Klagenfurt was already founded in 2007 ahead of the formation of the SK Austria Kärnten football club, but began playing not before SK Austria was dissolved in 2010[1] and it had merged with SC St. Stefan.[2] SK Austria Klagenfurt plays its home matches at the Hypo Group Arena.[3] The club adopts the tradition of the former SK Austria Klagenfurt founded in 1920, renamed FC Kärnten in 1999, which was dissolved in 2009.

In 2020–21, Austria Klagenfurt finished in third place and promotion to Austrian Bundesliga for the first time in history after defeat SKN St. Pölten with aggregate 5–0 in promotion relegation play-off, the club promotion to top tier since refounded in 2007 due to obtain a licence by ÖFB.
