A Riemannian manifold M is called weakly symmetric if any two points in M can be interchanged by an isometry. The compact ones have been well understood, and the main remaining case is that of 2-step nilpotent Lie groups. We give a complete classification of simply connected non-singular weakly symmetric nilmanifolds. Besides previously known examples, there are new families with 3-dimensional center, and a one-parameter family of dimensions 14. The classification is based on the authors classification of non-singular 2-step nilpotent Lie groups for which every geodesic is the image of a one parameter group of isometries.
