This page is a list of mayors of Toulouse since 1790.
The municipal law of 14 December 1789 created a General Council of the municipality of Toulouse whose eighteen members were elected for two years by the citizens. The first mayor was Joseph de Rigaud, 70 years old at that time, and a professor at the Faculty of Law. He took office on 28 February 1790. Previously, it was the elected Capitouls who ran the city until their city council was suppressed.

A local liberation committee was immediately set up and played the role of a temporary municipality; it is headed by Raymond Badiou, who was elected mayor in 1945, then re-elected in 1947 and 1953. He led a cautious municipal policy, urbanizing Toulouse in a compact way to avoid the multiplication of networks, which led him to launch the first social housing programs in the immediate vicinity of the city.Intérim de Georges Carrère from September until October 19582(born 9 May 1912 in Toulouse, died 10 December 1992 in Toulouse)October1958March1971SFIOIn ten years the town redevelops all its roads networks (including transport) and there is built 40,000 homes, a large part in a collaboration between the town hall and developers. After the cities of Aste and Empalot and facing the project Colomiers led by his colleague General Council Eugene Montel, Louis Bazerque launched the controversial project of Grand Mirail under the architectural responsibility of Georges Candilis, one of the main disciples of Le Corbusier. Symbol of access of the middle classes to comfort housing (hot water and electricity), this district extended the urbanization to the southwest.3Pierre Baudis (born 11 May 1916 in Decazeville, died 5 January 1997 in Toulouse)March1971March1983 UDF4Dominique Baudis (born 14 April 1946 in Paris, died 10 April 2014 in Paris)March198323 January2001UDFIntérim de Guy Hersant from 23 January until 23 March 20015Philippe Douste-Blazy (born 1 January 1953 à Lourdes)23 March200129 July2004 UDF then UMPIntérim de Françoise de Veyrinas from 30 July until 5 August 20046Jean-Luc Moudenc (born 19 July 1960 in Toulouse)6 August200416 March2008UMPIn the social field, it is practically doubling the Large City Project for Districts in Trouble, with priority being given to school renovation and the construction of crèches and neighborhood facilities.
