The 1955 European Baseball Championship was held in Barcelona, Spain and was won by Spain. Belgium finished as runner-up. Five teams competed in the tournament, with France joining the four teams that competed in the previous edition in 1954.

The format for the tournament had also changed. Instead of a knockout tournament, which was the 1954 championship's format, it was a round-robin tournament played over five days from July 10 to 15.

By winning the tournament, Spain qualified for the 1955 Global World Series. However, the Spanish organizers incurred a debt of 150,000 pesetas organizing the event, which was not paid off by the 1960 championship, also held in Barcelona.
