Germany is a beautiful country that is home to many beautiful architectural sites, delicious restaurants and world-class attractions.

IntlMOVE has put together a list of fun facts that will help you get to know your new country a little better. 

Germany is roughly the size of Montana, so with over 82 million people calling Germany home, it is one of the most densely populated countries in the world. 

German Landscape

Almost 1/3 of Germany is covered with forests and woodlands, which helps make Germany one of the most beautiful countries in the world.

There are over 150 castles in Germany that help make the scenery almost like a fairytale.

Some of the castles are still inhabited, while other castles have been made into hotels or other tourist destinations. 

Life in Germany

For some people, the German workweek also includes Saturdays.
This means that bus and train schedules run on the same schedules on Saturday as they do Monday through Friday.

Get to the stores early because most of them will close by 1 pm on Saturday.

When Germans pick up the phone, they will not greet you with the familiar “hi” or “hello”.

Instead, Germans answer the phone using their surname. 

If your dog is considered a member of your family, you will be happy to know that dogs are allowed just about everywhere.

You can bring your dogs to stores, restaurants and even on public transportation.

There are some restrictions like butcher shops and bakeries, but dogs can go almost everywhere with their human guardians. 

German Cars

If you are into cars, you will love Germany!

The BMW, Porsche and Mercedes –Benz brands of cars are all from Germany.

If you love to drive fast, you can drive 300 km per hour on the Autobahn!

If you decide to ship your car overseas, let IntlMOVE know that a car will be part of your international shipment.

IntlMOVE can ship your car to Germany along with your household goods and personal effects. 

German Food and Drinks

If you are a lover of carbs, you will love all of the German bread options.

There are over 300 different kinds of bread you can try.

That is almost one different kind of bread for each day of the year!

If that number is surprising, you will be astonished to learn that there are over 1,200 different types of pastries in this European country. 

Germans are famous for their bratwurst and sausage and you can try over 1,500 different types when you move to Germany! 

German Beer

In Bayern, Germany, beer is officially considered a food.

Germans want to guarantee the quality of their beer, which is why the German Beer Purity Law has been in full effect since 1516.  

Germans rank only second to Ireland in world-wide beer consumption per person.

There are over 5,000 different kinds of beer sold in Germany and about 1,280 breweries.

Over 50 percent of these breweries are located in Bavaria.

It is not easy to make a choice with that many options, but luckily Germany is the one of the least inexpensive places in Europe to purchase beer. 

Now that you know a little bit more about Germany, you can begin planning your international move to Europe.
