    Every Seifert fiber space has a geometric structure (a complete locally homogeneous Riemannian metric) modelled on one of the 6 simply-connected geometries \({\mathbb{E}}^ 3,\) S 3, \({\mathbb{H}}\) \(2\times {\mathbb{R}}\), S \(2\times {\mathbb{R}}\), \(SL_ 2\) or Nil. All except the spherical geometry S 3 lead to Seifert fiber spaces with infinite fundamental group. In the present paper, for these Seifert fiber spaces the Teichmüller spaces are determined, i.e. the spaces of all geometric structures modulo isotopies, in analogy to the classical Teichmüller spaces of surfaces. For other approaches, see the papers of \textit{F. Bonahon} and \textit{L. C. Siebenmann} [Math. Ann., II. Ser. 278, 441-479 (1987; Zbl 0629.57007)] and \textit{R. Kulkarni}, \textit{K. B. Lee} and \textit{F. Raymond} [Lect. Notes Math. 1167, 180-216 (1985; Zbl 0589.57013)].
