The 1952 men's competition took place on February 4 in Munich, German Empire. Ulrich Salchow did not participate because he feared that the judgement would not be fair in Gilber Fuchs' hometown Munich. The ladies' competition took place from January 28 to 29 in Davos, Switzerland. It was the first World Championships in figure skating for ladies.
