Demographics
Wiedenborstel was the least populated municipality in Germany as of 31 March 2010 with only eight inhabitants. All of the inhabitants belong to the same family. In 1910, Wiedenborstel had 119 inhabitants. Officially, by 31 December 2012, there were 12 inhabitants. It was no longer the least populous municipality in Germany, having lost that distinction to Gröde (with 11 inhabitants), and tied with Dierfeld (also with 12 inhabitants). Wiedenborstel, however, still holds the distinction of being the least densely populated municipality in Germany as of that date.
