Living European supercentenarians

Below is a list of the oldest living people from Europe. Those whose lifespan is listed as 'verified' have been validated by an international body that specifically deals in longevity research, such as the Gerontology Research Group. Those listed as 'pending' have attained lifespans backed by at least one document, but not the three necessary for validation according to the standards of modern longevity research. Those listed as 'unverified' are backed by no documentary evidence, as yet.

However, nothing has been published to dispute the claim. Butariu's stated birthdate is 17 June 1882, however Romania did not adopt the Gregorian calendar until March 1919 and therefore her age may be inflated by 13 days. The sources do not indicate whether her date of birth was as reckoned by the Julian calendar or had been adjusted to reflect the date as reckoned by the Gregorian calendar. 17 June 1882 on the Julian calendar was 30 June 1882 on the Gregorian calendar.
