German-American Heritage Month is celebrated annually and coincides with the German-American day, as proclaimed both by President Ronald Reagan in 1983 and by President Barack Obama in 2010.
German-American Heritage Month celebrates the German immigrants who came from Europe and lived on American soil in the first days of colonization, and their immense contribution to the American culture. On October 6, 1683, thirteen families from Krefeld Germany arrived in Philadelphia and created Germantown, Pennsylvania. This was the first settlement of Germans in what would become the United States.
Today, close to a quarter of American citizens can trace their ancestry to Germany. A lot of modern American traditions have their roots in Germany as well, Christmas included.
