European Judo Championships 2001

The 2001 European Judo Championships took place in Paris from May 18th to 20th . Before that, the European Championships were last held in Paris in 1992. The judoka from the host country won ten medals, but since there were only two gold medals among them, they took second place in the medal table behind the Belgians.

Gella Vandecaveye won her sixth straight light middleweight title, Celine Lebrun her third light heavyweight title and Elçin İsmayılov his second super lightweight title. Katja Gerber won the heavyweight division after two titles in the open class.
