"Christianity is the largest religious denomination in Germany, with 52 million adherents (64%). 26.5 million are Protestants (32.3%) and 25.5 million are Catholics (31.0%). The second largest religion is Islam with 4.3 million adherents (5%) followed by Buddhism and Judaism, both with around 200,000 adherents (c. 0.25%). Hinduism has some 90,000 adherents (0.1%) and Sikhism 75,000 (0.09%). All other religious communities in Germany have fewer than 50,000 (or less than 0.05%) adherents. About 24.4 million Germans (29.6%) have no registered religious denomination."

There is no set religion, but the most common belief is Christianity.

The major religions in Germany are Roman Catholicism, Protest Lutheran, and Islam. The southern areas and cities along the Rhine river lean catholic. The northern areas lean protestant. The major urban areas have a large Turkish and Turkish German population; they lean Muslim. There are only about 3,000 practicing Jews today in Germany. Any discussion on religion in Germany, however, should include the fact that most young Germans are atheist/humanist. Germany is a largely secular country.

  • About 65% to 70% of the population are followers of the Christian religion in Germany. They are more or less evenly split between the mainstream denominations of Lutheran-Protestantism and Calvinism united in the EKD (Evangelical Church in Germany) and the Roman Catholic Church. Due to the historical development of religion in Germany, these denominations are concentrated in specific regions.
  • important minority religions in Germany are:
    • Islam (about 4 % of the German population),
    • Judaism, and Buddhism (both of which represent less than 1% of Germany's inhabitants).
