An overview is presented of the measurements of the top quark mass performed by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC with an integrated luminosity varying between 35 pb$^{-1}$ and 4.7 fb$^{-1}$. Different techniques are used to measure the top quark mass looking at events in all three signatures: fully-hadronic, lepton+jets and di-leptonic ones. The most precise measurement, using a template method on lepton+jets events, yields a top quark mass of 174.5 $\pm$ 0.6 (stat) $\pm$ 2.3 (syst) GeV. The dominant systematic uncertainties are related to the determination of the $b-$jet energy scale and the modelling of additional radiation accompanying the $t\bar{t}$ pair production.
