A comprehensive investigation of the HfGeO4:1%Ti phosphor, focusing primarily on its thermoluminescence properties in the range of 30-500°C and photoluminescence in the 13 - 600 K is reported. The thermoluminescence exposed three TL peaks at 70, 120, and 180°C whose properties were analyzed. Two emissions peaking at 430 nm under 255 nm excitation and, previously never reported, at 580 nm under 320 nm excitation were identified and characterized. They showed different thermal quenching properties. On the contrary to the emission intensity, which slightly increased from 13 K to about 200 K, the decay time of the 430 nm luminescence started shortening just about 40 K. It continued this trend up to 600 K with different dynamics. The 580 nm luminescence got thermally quenched within the 30-400 K range. Both emissions presented very good thermometric properties when their decay times were used as the thermometric parameter with relative thermal sensitivity of 7.67 %/K at 62 K (430 nm luminescence), and 6.04 %/K at 73 K (580 nm). The HfGeO4:1%Ti appeared a very good luminescence thermometer operating in a wide range of 30-600 K, with sensitivities higher than 0.4 %/K.
