Germany is generally considered to be a country where tradition plays a big role: Lederhosen, the famous Oktoberfest and half-timbered houses. But Michael Wigge finds little evidence of this in Cologne and sets out to find out if Germans are still in touch with their tradition.

  • Ahhhhh no lederhosen are not german tradition they are a baverian tradition

  • @barbieguard

    Wegen den Amis die nach den 2 WK in Bayern stationiert waren, deshalb komt das

  • warum denken alle, die deutschen wären alle wie die bayern? Junge, junge

  • @Zainer93 xD

  • is des jetz verarsche oder ernst??? ALso des is jetzt ne ernst gemeinte frage???

  • @MrSlytherin "How many people in germany actually wear the Lederhosen and the Dirndl?" Das war die Frage. Und das sind nie 5 % :D

  • Bei den 5% ging's ja nicht nur um Dirndl und Lederhosen, sondern um traditionelle Kleidung im Allgemeinen! Da muss man z.B. auch sämtlich Karnevals- und Schützenvereine mit einrechnen! ;o)

  • To say all germans wear Lederhosen and Dirndl is like to say, all japanese people wear a Kimono.

  • Ich lebe in Nrw und habe in meinem gesamten Leben erst 2 (!) Mal Menschen in Lederhosen gesehen, beide Individuen waren leicht angeheitert, ca. 25 Jahre alt und kamen soviel ich weiß von einer Mottofete. :D

    Das mit den 5% kann nicht stimmen, es sei denn man besucht das Oktoberfest. ;)
