In Brandenburg, cities with more than 45,000 inhabitants or 25,000 inhabitants received the status of a large or medium-sized city belonging to a district in accordance with Section 2, Paragraph 3 of the municipal code for the Land Brandenburg old version. With the introduction of the Brandenburg Municipal Constitution (BbgKVerf), the status of the Middle District City was abolished, but a grandfathering regulation was included in Section 141 (2) BbgKVerf. In addition, according to Section 1 (3) BbgKVerf, 35,000 inhabitants are now sufficient to achieve the status of a city belonging to a large district.
For officially bilingual cities and municipalities, the Lower Sorbian name is given in addition to the German name.
