History
Vorpommern-Rügen – Vorpommern-Greifswald I was created after German reunification in 1990, then known as Stralsund – Rügen – Grimmen. Until 2002, it was constituency 267 in the numbering system. Originally, it comprised the now-abolished districts of Grimmen, Rügen, and Stralsund, and the independent city of Stralsund. In the 2002 election, it was expanded to contain the former Ribnitz-Damgarten district, which had been abolished in 1994; it now covered the entirety of the later-abolished Nordvorpommern district. At this time, it was renamed to Stralsund – Nordvorpommern – Rügen, and acquired its current constituency number of 15. In the 2013 election, it was further expanded to include the independent city of Greifswald and the Amt of Landhagen, and was renamed to Vorpommern-Rügen – Vorpommern-Greifswald I.
The constituency was held continuously by Angela Merkel of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) from its formation until her retirement. Merkel served as leader of the CDU from 2000 and Chancellor of Germany from 2005 until 2021. In the 2021 federal election, it was won by Anna Kassautzki of the Social Democratic Party (SPD).
