# Germany at the 2020 Summer Olympics

Germany competed at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Originally scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020, the Games were postponed to 23 July to 8 August 2021, because of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was the nation's eighth consecutive appearance at the Summer Olympic Games after its reunification in 1990.
Germany competed in all sports except artistic swimming, baseball, rugby sevens, softball and water polo.
Germany's medal total of 37 medals is the second lowest number won by Germany at a Summer Olympics post-reunification, only better than the performance in Paris 2024, where the country ended with 33 medal in total.

Thirty swimmers (17 men and 13 women) were officially named to the German roster on 19 May 2021, including 2019 world champion Florian Wellbrock in both the men's long-distance freestyle and open water, 2015 world champion Marco Koch in the men's 200 m breaststroke, 2019 world silver medalist Sarah Köhler in the women's long-distance freestyle, and two-time Olympian Annika Bruhn in the women's sprint and middle-distance freestyle.
