Abstract
This chapter reviews the basics of cryogenic thermometry in the past 50 years and its updated state of the art. First, it answers the question of why a temperature scale is needed and its meaning. Next, the basics of a scale definition and a short history of the temperature scales from 1955 are outlined, together with lessons learned in temperature calibration and international standards. Finally, the characteristics of the main types of thermometer developed in the past 50 years and used in cryogenics are summarized.
