There is now a consolidated list of Germany's area codes as listed
below.

Thanks to Thomas Diessel of the Federal Armed Forces University,
Munich Computer Science Department for sending this along to us.
Unfortunately, it will be a while before an updated zone 4 (Europe)
list can replace the existing archives one, due to some disarray and
work in progress on my end of the country code listings. However, the
new Germany updates will be included in a new zone 4 set of codes.

Comments:

This list is only a quite random selection of German area codes. (As
the list is already quite long I suggest to delete all four digits
area codes not ending with a 1.) Neither area codes nor prefixes have
a fixed length. The area codes are two to four digits in the western
part and two to five digits in the eastern part (3xxxx) of Germany.
All subscriber numbers are three to seven digits and up to eight
digits for PBX. The area code and the subscriber number together are
not longer than ten digits. Most three digit area codes were of the
form zX1, where z is the ZVSt (central switching office). 

But the number of exceptions increased over the years: 202, 203, 208,
209, 212, 214, 228, 234, 335, 340, 345, 355, 365, 375, 385, 395, 906.
The most exceptions of this rule are within the ZVSt 2 because there
are a lot of large cities and within the ZVSt 3 because that covers a
large region (the eastern part of Germany). The area code z11 is
usally the area code for the city where the ZVSt is located, except
for cities which got two digit area codes: 30, 40, 69, 89.

- Eurosignal paging service (279, 509, 709)
- all missing 3 digit area codes
- all missing 2 digit area codes of former East Germany

Deleted:

- small cities, which belong to an area code of a larger city (e.g.
Fu:rth)

Corrected:
- spelling of some names, now using a:, o: and u:
