Turks in Germany

The Turks in Germany are the country's largest ethnic minority. Immigrants came from different parts of Turkey, but especially from Anatolia, when Germany invited them to work as guest workers between 1961-73 due to labour shortages. Some of them were of Romanlar Background. The Turks in Germany are mostly religious and hold old Turkish traditions such as the Sünnet-Ceremony in great respect.^[1]^[2]

Turks in Europe, especially in Germany, suffer from strong Anti-Turkish sentiment. One of the most heinous anti-Turkish crimes in Germany was the murder of a Turkish family in Solingen in 1993.^[3] Attacks on Turkish institutions, Mosques, Turkish markets and Turkish people are increasing, and some have been fatal.^[4]
