German Culture site was moved here from About.com after the latter had removed
it and 300 more Guide sites from its network on September 25, 2001. Tremendous
efforts put into the site's creation and maintenance could not go down
the drain, and here we are!
This site offers a balanced look at one of the world's most significant
cultures, and is a profile of the daily life and culture of the German
people. Make it your goal to get acquainted with Germany, and you'll go
through the maze of German history, wander in the depths of German literature,
get to know famous people of German origin, enter German political life,
enjoy German cuisine, admire world-known German cars, and much more. You
are welcome to join us here.
The site is run by me,
Tatyana Gordeeva, and you can contact me to get answers to your Germany-related
questions.
Special thanks to Alexander Neprinets for spending days and nights designing
this site!
