The Hidden American Suburbs in Germany
Part of my tour trying to find the Strangest Things in Munich, this is up there. It's like an entire car-dependent suburb was transplanted in the middle of Germany. It was a wild experience to explore (and also very pretty).

    Until 1998, there were several US Army barracks here in Augsburg and half a dozen or more American-style housing areas, some of them quite large. The barracks themselves were Nazi military buildings that survived the war unscathed. But the residential areas were as American as it gets. Mostly American-style apartment buildings, but also individual houses for the higher ranks, as in your video. As a cab driver, I had almost daily trips between the barracks and the residential areas or certain bars or nightclubs that were mainly frequented by soldiers. We cab drivers didn't particularly like these trips with Americans because, as the cliché goes, they were very short and could have been done on foot in a few minutes. Also, the soldiers were often drunk and quite rude. Some of the residential areas are still in use, and a friend of mine even rented an apartment there after the “Amis” left. So I saw his American-style apartment first hand. We even still have an American-style church, which is now Orthodox, and a chapel that is rotting away and was due to be demolished, but was declared a listed building last year. The barracks, on the other hand, have been demolished and new, very modern residential areas with beautiful parks have been built over the years - and still are! Oh, and many young mixed-race black Germans are also still a living legacy from the time when the “Yanks” were in Augsburg, like my apartment neighbor Alicia, hehe.

    • @MattSuozzo
      @MattSuozzo 5 днів тому

      That provides a lot of context, and still strange to think these types of 'American style' neighborhoods still exist all over Germany. And you are quite correct: Americans are not used to walking, that activity is reserved exclusively for exercise, not transportation.

      I was so surprised to find good Brezn at Biergartens during the summer. My friend wanted to know why I was surprised, so I mentioned that anytime I got Brezn at Wiesn (or god forbid Hofbräuhaus) they were so dry and bland it made me ashamed for their bakers. Honestly even the ones at Rewe (mit Käse natürlich) are pretty decent. Just avoid at Wiesn :)

    Forst = economically used forest So a "Forstwirtschaft" (forestry) is kinda like a "Landwirtschaft" (farm) but with trees instead of food grown on land/soil, Here the "Forstwirt" instead of the "Landwirt" (farmer) is the one who takes care of the forest, plants trees or other forest plants which are necessary and economically reasonable and who cuts trees down to sell the wood. Here the similarities of the germanic languages are shown once more, it seems.

      Locals like myself still know it as "Ami-Siedlung" to this day. I grew up just south of it, and I still remember the yearly German-American "Little Octoberfest" organised by the US Military. Oh, and that's also how I learned English - watching Johnny Carson's late night show on AFN TV (with a slightly modified TV set) almost every night. :)

    Usually, countries/regions which have a US military base nearby have neighborhoods specifically targetted at US military personnel, some are even entirely built for that purpose. I get the feeling you were in one of such areas. I remember visiting a similar place decades ago in the north of Madrid; it was shocking. Not only were streets and houses "American", so were the shops and comunal areas. Heck, even the police cars were American. And this was on off-base area, not attached to (or even close for that matter) to the existing US base to the East of Madrid.

    We had " Little America (USA) " in our " twin" town on the other side of the River Danube which - thanks to Napoleon - is in Bavaria whilst my part of the " twin" is in Baden-Württemberg . To cut a long story short the towns are Ulm (BW) and Neu-Ulm ( Bavaria). As a young girl I was invited to an American family living there for Thanksgiving due to our girl guides Brownies connection. This part of Neu-Ulm are the Wiley Barracks and they gave me my first impression what parts of the USA might look like including a cinema and a water tower (and Pershing 2 rockets with nuclear heads which made me join the human chain from Ulm to Stuttgart as a form of protest in the 1980s.😜) Thanks to the unification of Germany the barracks " fell into the hands of the enemy" so to say and are now a very well kept suburb of Neu-Ulm where some of the typical American "sights" are kept while others were either demolished or upgraded to German standards. 😁 As a thank you to our American protectors my family invited one of the soldiers stationed there each year and who couldn't make it home for Christmas which helped to brush up our knowledge of English and was fun !

    Tracht is fashion like anywhere else. This year was beige and light browns. A few years ago it was red and silver. It's fun. I'm a Canadian living near Minga for 20 years and I love the traditional clothing . My bayriche wife says when she was younger no one would wear tracht but now kids wear it and love it. A full outfit will cost you about 300 euros but the lederhosen and shoes will last 30 years. You just upgrade the shirts and socks every year. I'm fond of the Austrian stuff with edelweiss buttons.
