Homicides in Germany with a right-wing extremist motive

The German government recognises 113 homicides with a right-wing extremist motive between 1990 and 2022. The Amadeo Antonio Foundation claims as many as 124 further such homicides. Visualising the dispersion of this deadly violence can be of some help in addressing the threat of right-wing extremist violence in Germany.

Density map

Dots indicate the municipality where homicides with a right-wing extremist motive occurred. Black dots refer to those cases recognised as instances of right-wing extremist violence by the German government. Yellow dots refer to additional cases identified by or reported to the Amadeo Antonio Foundation. The states of Germany are shaded according to the density (by population, per 100,000 inhabitants) of homicides that have occurred therein. You can examine further evidence about a case by clicking on a dot.
