Largest cities of the European Union by population within city limits

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

This is a list of the largest cities in the European Union by population within city limits which have more than 300,000 inhabitants.[1] It deals exclusively with the areas within city administrative boundaries as opposed to urban areas or metropolitan areas, which are generally larger in terms of population than the main city.

As some cities have very narrow city limits and others very wide, the list may not give an accurate picture of the situation. The figures in the list should be treated with caution.
