• German culture and people are, to a large extent, all about reason and logic.
Germany shares a lot of culture and tradition with neighboring countries, especially the
Germanic-speaking Austria and Switzerland.
• Residents are expected to respect order and structure. It’s important to be on time,
not just for work but for social events too, and to follow rules that are in place for the
greater good of everybody who lives there.
• Traditional clothing in Germany includes the world-famous Lederhosen, an outfit once
worn by rural men, traditionally those undertaking farm work or manual labor. A knee-
length set of breeches complete with braces, worn over a short sleeve
shirt, Lederhosen are traditionally associated with Bavarian and Tyrolean culture.
• For women, traditional German clothes include the Dirndl, a dress made from a bodice,
pinafore and full skirt. The shirt underneath is usually low cut and made with short puffy
sleeves. Today these clothes are no longer seen on farm workers but on the staff and
partygoers at beer festivals.
• German culture has been shaped over thousands of years. It was originally a pagan
country, and then an important seat of the Holy Roman Empire. It was also
the birthplace of the Protestant reformation.
• Some of the key characteristics of German culture that the nation is famously known for
include the timeliness and order that is apparent in most parts of German society. From
an onlooker’s viewpoint, good beer (andOktoberfest), delicious sausage, hiking,
traditional ‘Oom-Pah’ folk music, and holiday-making make-up a key part of the
country’s identity.
• The world’s most renowned classical composers, as Bach and Beethoven, who have
marked the transition of music between the classical and romantic to western classical
music, are Germans, who were born and died in Germany. Other famous composers

Germany is located in central Wester Europe,
bordered by nine other countries (Belgium,
Poland, France, Switzerland, Austria,
Luxemburg...) with small coasts on the North
and Baltic Seas, which they own about 50
small islands. And it's at the heart of Europe.
Germany's central and southern regions have
forested hills and mountains cut through by the
Danube, Main, and Rhine river valleys. In the
north, the landscape flattens out to a wide
plain that stretches to the North Sea. Between
these extremes, Germany is a country of
incredible variety.
Germany's largest wooded area, and its most
famous, is in the southwest near the Swiss
border. This is the Black Forest, a
mountainous region full of pines and fir trees.
This forest contains the source of the Danube,
one of Europe's longest rivers.

field, which is blazoned: Or an eagle displayed sable
beaked langued and membered gules. ... It is one of the
oldest coats of arms in the world, and today
the oldest national symbol used in Europe.
• This is the Bundesadler (German for "Federal Eagle"),
formerly known as Reichsadler (German for "Imperial
Eagle").
• To the Germanic tribes the eagle was the bird of the god
Odin, and by the Romans, too, it was revered as the
symbol of the supreme god, of the emperor and of
invincibility.
• Even long ago, in the Orient and in Antiquity, amongst the
Germanics and the Romans, the eagle was revered in
particular as a symbol of the supreme deity, of vitality
and of the sun.
