The 1992 Baden-Württemberg state election was held on 5 April 1992 to elect the members of the 10th Landtag of Baden-Württemberg. The incumbent Christian Democratic Union (CDU) government under Minister-President Erwin Teufel lost its majority. The CDU suffered a 9.4% swing, mostly to the national conservative Republicans, who managed to enter the Landtag due to the asylum debate and achieved their best result in a state election, placing third with 10.9%. After the election, the CDU formed a grand coalition with the Social Democratic Party (SPD), and Teufel was re-elected as Minister-President.
