Description
Summary:The present study describes the life of a Hungarian-German community in the south of Hungary. The Germans came to the village of Gro naarad from the Fulda area in the 18th century, because during the Turkish rule the village lost its population and the German colonists had to start anew here. The inhabitants have been engaged in agriculture and handicrafts for several centuries. Nowadays the village is struggling with the emigration of young people to the cities but wants to continue to preserve its valuable traditions and its Hungarian-German identity.
