DESCRIPTION:

On October 6, 1683, thirteen families from Krefeld, Germany, arrived in Philadelphia and created Germantown, Pennsylvania. It was the first settlement of Germans in what would become the United States. Today marks the anniversary of that community's establishment and German Americans' contribution to the history of America.

German-American Day was first declared as German American Heritage Day in 1983 by President Ronald Reagan.

Today, nearly a quarter of American citizens trace their ancestry to Germany. Many modern American traditions also have their roots in Germany, Christmas included, and this day celebrates that and strengthens the friendship between the two nations.
