Wettest places — All of Germany

Climate normals are 1991–2020 averages from the nearest Deutscher Wetterdienst station, so neighbouring municipalities share a figure. In the Alps the nearest station is sometimes a summit one and describes the mountain rather than the town below it. Places whose figure the statistical offices withhold are absent rather than shown as zero.
