List of German exonyms for places in Croatia
This is a list of German exonyms for places in Croatia.
The entire territory that belongs today to the Republic of Croatia, was governed by Austria-Hungary until 1918, and some Hungarian exonyms became common in German, and have been used interchangeably with the German exonym for a period. These Hungarian names are noted below. Additionally, parts of these territories ruled by Austria-Hungary were formerly governed by the Republic of Venice, the Republic of Ragusa, and the Kingdom of Italy, and Italian names also migrated to German usage; these names are also noted.
Not included are translations of non-proper nouns, names spelled the same, and names respelled to match German pronunciation rules.
