The 16 States of Germany:
What Makes Each One Special?
The States of Germany offer a glimpse into the unique regions that make up the country—from Bavaria’s hearty traditions to Berlin’s modern flair. Each Bundesland has its own character, customs, dialects, and, of course, food. Discover what makes each German state unique—one region, one tradition at a time.
Germany isn’t just one country—it’s really 16 little ones all stitched together! Each of the 16 Federal States of Germany (or Bundesländer, as we say) has its own government, its own character, and plenty of pride.
From the coastal charm of the north to the Alpine beauty in the south, no two states are quite the same. They each come with their own food, dialect, traditions, and even rules—yes, really. That’s what makes Germany so fascinating (and sometimes a bit confusing!).
We've had the joy of visiting each one, and we’re sharing our favorite highlights, from must-see sights to must-eat bites. So get ready for a deliciously fun journey through the colorful patchwork that is Germany.
These Bavarian soft pretzels (laugenbrezeln) bring the authentic taste of Germany right into your kitchen -- crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside.
Traditionally enjoyed during Oktoberfest and throughout Bavaria, these pretzels are a beloved staple at festivals and gatherings.
Using a simple baked baking soda method instead of lye, this recipe makes it easy and safe to recreate this classic treat at home.
Give it a try and savor the warm, golden goodness of homemade German pretzels!
