Municipalities of Germany
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Municipalities (Gemeinde) are the lowest level of territorial division in Germany. This may be the fourth level of territorial division in Germany, apart from those states which include Regierungsbezirke (singular: Regierungsbezirk), where municipalities then become the fifth level.

As can be seen in this diagram, a Gemeinde can cover all levels of administration up to the state level, the latter being Berlin, Hamburg and Bremen.
