Germany Cultural Exchange
Country Information
Germany is a European country celebrated for its rich cultural heritage and historical significance. It boasts iconic landmarks such as the Brandenburg Gate and Neuschwanstein Castle. Renowned for its diverse cuisine and world-famous beers, Germany is a gastronomic delight. The German language and contributions to music, philosophy, and science have profoundly influenced global culture. It continues to be a favoured tourist destination, drawing millions of visitors each year.
The majority of Germans are Christian, with a significant proportion identifying as either Protestant or Catholic.

When they do attend church services, it’s typically on Sunday mornings.
