Abstract

The article surveys ethnological museums and collections in the Federal Republic of Germany that document the history and culture of German minorities in Eastern and Southeastern Europe. For context, the author discusses such topics as the Bundesvertriebenengesetz (Federal Refugee Services Act), the legal basis for government aid to these museums, the history of community museums in Germany, and a system of sponsorships of geographically based refugee groups by specific German cities. Specific ethnic German groups discussed include the Donauschwaben (Danube Swabians) and Siebenbürger Sachsen (Transsylvanian Saxons).
