Malcolm Turnbull has paid tribute to Helmut Kohl's efforts to shape modern Europe following the former German chancellor's death.
He was the driving force behind a common European currency, cemented Germany's partnership with France, and would always be remembered for promoting global peace and prosperity, the prime minister said.
"Chancellor Kohl was also a good friend to Australia and was committed to the partnership between Australia and Germany which continues to go from strength to strength," Mr Turnbull said on Saturday.
