Laschet (surname)

Laschet is a German surname. It is most notably associated with Armin Laschet, a German politician who served as Minister-President of North Rhine-Westphalia from 2017 to 2021 and was the leader of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) from 2021 to 2022.

The origin and meaning of the surname are less well-documented than for some other German surnames. Further research would be needed to establish a definitive etymology and historical distribution beyond its presence in Germany.
