Fundamental rights in the German Constitution
Fundamental rights in the German Constitution (German: [Grundrechte] Error: {{Lang}}: text has italic markup (help)) are a set of rights guaranteed to the German people through their Basic Law (German: [Grundgesetz] Error: {{Lang}}: text has italic markup (help)). The majority of the fundamental rights are contained in the Articles 1 to 19 of the Grundgesetz (GG). These rights are binding each of the country's constitutional institutions. In case the Grundrechte are violated and a remedy is denied by other courts, the Basic Law provides for an appeal to the Federal Constitutional Court of Germany (German: [Bundesverfassungsgericht] Error: {{Lang}}: text has italic markup (help)).[NB 1]
