- German Historical Institute Rome
- German Historical Institute Warsaw

The institutes abroad are autonomous institutes within the framework of the statutes and carry out independent academic work. They conduct their own research and promote cooperation with academics as well as institutes within their own areas of work, in particular through publications and academic events, academic information and consultation, mediation of academic contacts, promotion of young historians, especially through scholarships as well as setting up and administering libraries and archives.
