List of East German Athletics Championships winners

The East German Athletics Championships (German: DDR Leichtathletik-Meisterschaften) was an annual outdoor track and field competition organised by the East German Athletics Federation, which served as the East German national championships for the sport. The three- or four-day event was held in summer months, varying from late June to early September, and the venue changed on an annual basis. The winners were exclusively East Germans.

It was first held in 1948 following the division of Germany, initially known as the Eastern Zone Athletics Championships for the first two years. The final edition was held in 1990, at which point it ended and was succeeded by the all-Germany German Athletics Championships.[1][2][3]
