Most total medals by skater edit

 
Carolina Kostner shares the overall record of the European Championships with eleven medals.
  • If the total number of medals is identical, the gold, silver and bronze medals are used as tie-breakers (in that order). If all numbers are the same, the skaters receive the same placement and are sorted in alphabetical order.
  • The table only shows the period from the first to the last won medal, not all participation at the European Championships.
