The UEFA European Football Championship is the main football competition of the men's national football teams governed by UEFA (the Union of European Football Associations). Held every four years since 1960, in the even-numbered year between World Cup tournaments, it was originally called the UEFA European Nations Cup, changing to the current name in 1968.

Starting with the 1996 tournament, specific championships are often referred to in the form "Euro 2008" or whichever year is appropriate. Prior to entering the tournament all teams other than the host nations (which qualify automatically) compete in a qualifying process.

Germany have participated in eleven UEFA European Football Championships, five of which were as West Germany and six of which were as (unified) Germany.

They are holders of three European titles, won at Belgium 1972, Italy 1980 and England 1996. The team's worst result in the competition was a first round elimination in 2000 and 2004.[1][better source needed][2][better source needed]
