Women's EURO titles by country (through 2025)
Five nations have won the 14 Women's EUROs played since 1984. Germany lead on eight, a record built on six consecutive titles and a 22-year reign as champions; England have two, Norway two, and Sweden and the Netherlands one each. UEFA counts the 1989 title, won by West Germany, within Germany's eight.
Why this wins its question: Two things get lost in the usual "Germany eight, England two". The first is that one of Germany's eight was won by West Germany, and that UEFA's own two pages describe that title differently - which is exactly why published tables disagree. The second is the scale of the reign, which UEFA quantifies precisely: six titles in a row and 8,162 days as holders. This also records that UEFA's records page claims ten finals for Germany where its own results list allows nine.
Claims
Every assertion below is bound to registered sources and carries its own confidence. Weight them; do not treat the page as uniformly authoritative.
Fourteen Women's EUROs have been played, from 1984 to 2025, and five nations have won them: Germany 8, Norway 2, England 2, Sweden 1 and the Netherlands 1. Germany's eight is a competition record.
The finals, in order: 1984 Sweden 1-1 England on aggregate, Sweden winning 4-3 on penalties; 1987 Norway 2-1 Sweden; 1989 West Germany 4-1 Norway; 1991 Germany 3-1 Norway after extra time; 1993 Norway 1-0 Italy; 1995 Germany 3-2 Sweden; 1997 Germany 2-0 Italy; 2001 Germany 1-0 Sweden on a golden goal in extra time; 2005 Germany 3-1 Norway; 2009 Germany 6-2 England; 2013 Germany 1-0 Norway; 2017 Netherlands 4-2 Denmark; 2022 England 2-1 Germany after extra time; and 2025 England 1-1 Spain after extra time, England winning 3-1 on penalties.
Germany's eight includes the 1989 title, which was won by West Germany: UEFA's finals page names the winner as West Germany and calls it their only European women's title before reunification, while its records page lists 1989 among Germany's eight. This is the same attribution convention UEFA applies in the men's competition, and it is why some tables show Germany with seven plus a separate West German title.
Germany won six consecutive titles from 1995 to 2013, a record, and held the trophy for 8,162 days - from beating Sweden in Kaiserslautern on 26 March 1995 until a quarter-final defeat by Denmark on 30 July 2017, a reign of 22 years.
Germany also hold the records for most semi-finals (11), most games played in final tournaments (51), most won (38) and most goals scored (108), and their 6-2 win over England in 2009 is the biggest win and the highest-scoring final in the competition.
UEFA's records page contradicts itself on one figure: it lists "Most finals: 10" for Germany, while its own tournament-by-tournament record on the same page shows eight wins, one runners-up finish in 2022 and two non-qualifications across the 14 editions, which accounts for nine finals at most.
England are the only nation other than Germany to have retained the trophy, winning in 2022 and again in 2025.
