Besucherin

Besucherin is a German feminine noun that denotes a female visitor—someone who visits a place, attends an event, or receives a visit. It is the feminine counterpart to the masculine Besuche r and to the neutral Besuche ck in contexts where gender is specified. In sentences you might say: Die Besucherin betrachtete die Ausstellung or Heute werden mehrere Besucherinnen erwartet.

Besucherin is formed from the noun Besu ch with the feminine suffix -erin, following the common pattern for gendered agent nouns in German (for example Lehrer/Lehrerin). The plural is Besucherinnen for female visitors, while Besucher is used for male visitors or mixed groups.

In inclusive language contexts, some style guides propose gender-neutral alternatives such as Besuchende or phrasing that lists both genders (Besucherinnen und Besucher). The term is widely understood in everyday German and appears in dictionaries, signage, and media usage.
