112 German cities so far
Germany has enough centres to deserve a page per city. We are working through them largest first, and a city appears once its centres have been verified - not before.
How this list is built
Germany has 79 cities above 100,000 inhabitants and roughly 190 above 50,000. That is the target, worked through largest first.
Every centre is checked on its own website rather than copied from an exam board’s directory, and each city page carries the month it was last verified. Where a city has no exam centre of its own - which is common below about 80,000 inhabitants - we would rather send you to the nearest city than publish a page with nothing in it.
We deliberately do not list individual sitting dates. Centres change them at short notice, and a wrong date can cost you a journey or a deadline. Frequency and a direct link are more useful and stay true.
