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. ^[1]

1		Raymond Badiou (born 14 August 1905 in Bellerive-sur-Allier, died 27 June 1996 in Paris)	August 1944	September 1958	SFIO	The liberation of Toulouse took place on 19 and 20 August 1944. 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 1958
2		Louis Bazerque (born 9 May 1912 in Toulouse, died 10 December 1992 in Toulouse)	October 1958	March 1971	SFIO	In 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.
3		Pierre Baudis (born 11 May 1916 in Decazeville, died 5 January 1997 in Toulouse)	March 1971	March 1983	UDF
4		Dominique Baudis (born 14 April 1946 in Paris, died 10 April 2014 in Paris)	March 1983	23 January 2001	UDF
Intérim de Guy Hersant from 23 January until 23 March 2001

Intérim de Françoise de Veyrinas from 30 July until 5 August 2004
6		Jean-Luc Moudenc (born 19 July 1960 in Toulouse)	6 August 2004	16 March 2008	UMP	In 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. Rue Alsace-Lorraine is pedestrianised and a larger area is made in the city centre for bicycles. It establishes the provision of self-service bicycles in all the districts of Toulouse: VélôToulouse Culturally Moudenc inaugurated the renovation of the museum of natural history, the City of enlarged space, the House of Occitania. In 2007, he initiated the relocation of the Parc des Expositions and transformed the Ile du Ramier into an "island for recreation" and developed the banks of the Garonne for pedestrians and cyclists.
7		Pierre Cohen (born 20 March 1950 in Bizerte, Tunisia)	17 March 2008	3 April 2014	PS
