Germany

Gröde is a municipality located in the district of Nordfriesland within the German state of Schleswig-Holstein. It is coterminous with the hallig on which it is situated and serves as a small coastal settlement.

The municipality holds the distinction of having the smallest population of any municipality in Germany, with only 11 inhabitants.
