List of towns and cities in Germany by historical population information


The list of the largest German cities provides an overview of the most populous cities that were located in contemporary German territory at the time of the individual statistics.

Industrialization in the 19th century, especially since the Gründerzeit and the foundation of the German Empire in 1871, brought with it increased urbanization in Germany, leading to a largely urbanized society.

The following tables show historical population figures of German cities according to the respective area status. Also listed is the superordinate administrative unit (state, country, kingdom, province, district) to which the city belonged in the corresponding year. The following historical and current German state entities were taken into account:

  • Holy Roman Empire (962–1806)
  • German Confederation (1815–1866)
  • German Reich (1871–1949)
  • German Democratic Republic (1949–1990)
  • Federal Republic of Germany (1949–present)

Current information can be found in the list of cities in Germany by population.
