Who are the most followed German Instagram accounts in 2026?

The most followed German account right now is David Alaba with 15M followers. This directory ranks German Instagram accounts live by followers, growth, engagement rate and post count, each with a follower growth chart.

How is the Instagram engagement rate calculated?

For each account we read the 12 most recent public posts and average their likes and comments, then divide by follower count: (average likes + average comments) / followers x 100. It is measured from real posts rather than estimated from follower count, and it is recalculated every time the account is refreshed.

What is a good engagement rate on Instagram?

Below 0.5% is low, 0.5-1.5% is average, 1.5-3.5% is good and above 3.5% is high. Large accounts genuinely engage at lower rates than small ones, so compare an account against others of a similar size rather than against the whole list.

How often is the directory updated?

Follower counts, post counts and engagement are refreshed continuously on a cadence set by account size, and the rankings and growth charts update along with them.

Are adult accounts listed?

No. Accounts flagged as adult/NSFW are excluded from the directory.
