List of German names of Belgian places
Belgium is officially trilingual: German, French and Dutch. In addition, minority languages are recognized. In this list, the German and Dutch or French or Luxembourg names of Belgian places (cities, rivers, etc.) are compared.
The places are shown with the well-known German, Dutch and French or Luxembourg names. The article only covers the German-speaking toponyms that have a name that differs from the local Dutch, French or Luxembourgish; differences between these two languages are not covered by this list.
The places are arranged according to regions and provinces. Rivers are listed separately.
Due to the merging of municipalities in Belgium, many places are now part of a different municipality. In the comments, the current affiliation is noted for better orientation. The German-language name refers to the place article, if available, or alternatively to the article of the municipality to which the place is counted today.

Places in the province of Liège, including the German-speaking community
The language border between the German, Dutch and French-speaking areas runs through the province of Liège, so that there is an accumulation of toponyms in different languages. In the course of time this border has shifted a bit to the east, so that in the past there tended to be German or Dutch-speaking places, e.g. B. Welkenraedt or Bleyberg, today have a French-speaking majority.
The German place names in the nine municipalities of the German-speaking Community of Belgium are self-names and therefore not exonyms. For the sake of completeness, those communities and places with exonyms in other languages are included in this list and marked with DG for “German-speaking community”. Further place names without known names in other languages can be found under Category: Place in the German-speaking Community . Since the area of the German-speaking Community lies entirely within the otherwise French-speaking province of Liège , the French and not the German name form is used in some maps.
Balen, Bleiberg and Welkenrath are also considered to be Low German communities .

Places in the province of Luxembourg
After the revolution of 1830 , the western part of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg fell to Belgium. The eastern edge of the province, roughly along the road from Longwy (France) in the south to Bastnach in the north, was part of the Luxembourgish-speaking area. In the course of the territorial changes, the French place names became official. In particular in the communities of the Areler Land (Arel, Attert, Ibingen, Martelange, Messancy, as well as parts of Habay and Fauvillers), Luxembourgish has survived to this day, so that there are numerous toponyms in different languages. While most of the German-language terms have become obsolete due to the emancipation of Luxembourgish, the Luxembourgish terms are still used unofficially today.
In 1990 the French Community of Belgium recognized the regional languages in its area, including Luxembourgish, but without taking any further action.
