Deutscher Städtetag

The Deutscher Städtetag (Association of German Cities) is an organization that represents interests of cities in Germany.[1] It began in 1905, dissolved in 1933, then re-formed in 1945.[2] As of 2019 some 200 cities comprise its membership. The association's mission centers on sustaining the guarantee of local self-governance specified in the Grundgesetz für die Bundesrepublik Deutschland (German constitution), Article 28, paragraph 2.[3][4]
