Weser-Ems Government Region, Administrative region in northern Lower Saxony, Germany

The Weser-Ems region encompassed 14,965 square kilometers of territory, extending from the Dutch border to the Weser River in northern Germany.

The administrative district formed on August 1, 1977, through the consolidation of three previous regions: Osnabrück, Aurich, and Oldenburg in Lower Saxony.

The region maintained governmental offices in Oldenburg's Staatsministerium building, which represented the administrative traditions of the former Grand Duchy.

The territory included twelve districts and five independent cities, with a population of 2.4 million people and a density of 170 inhabitants per square kilometer.

Weser-Ems generated an economic output of 104.7 billion euros in 2022 before its dissolution as part of Lower Saxony's administrative restructuring.
