Municipal elections were held in France on 12 and 19 March 1989.
They gained Nantes, Strasbourg, Brest, Orléans, Mulhouse, Avignon, Chambéry, and Blois while losing Amiens, Saint-Malo, and Laon.
Chirac repeated his 1983 sweep in Paris, but the PS did the same in Marseille.
The FN won their first city, Saint-Gilles in the Gard.
The Greens and ecologists did well, winning over 600 seats and around 15 cities.
