| Goethe, Bach and Beethoven - the cultural life of Germany has a long and rich tradition. Nowadays, however, names like the painter, Gerhard Richter and the director, Fatih Akin, and German hip-hop, also stand for a lively, many-faceted land of culture. The nation's culture emanates from the peaceful and tolerant coexistence and collaboration of all who live in Germany at the present time. |
