The German community in Uruguay is small but significant; it numbers ca. 10,000 German expatriates and 40,000 people of German descent.[1] Most of them live in the Montevideo area, although there are German minorities in Paysandú, Río Negro, San José and Canelones.

History

One of the first Germans to come to the region was Ulrich Schmidl (known locally as Ulrico Smidel), who arrived at the oriental shores of the River Plate in the early 16th century and described the Charrúas.[2]

The German presence in Uruguay was always small, relatively discrete. The 2011 Uruguayan census revealed 1,167 people who declared Germany as their country of birth.[3]

Religion

Local Germans practise different Christian religions:

  • Roman Catholic: the Pallottine Fathers, with presence at the Church of Our Lady of Lourdes.
  • Evangelical Church: with its own temple at Juan Manuel Blanes 1116 in Montevideo.
  • Mennonite: there are four Mennonite settlements - Colonia Nicolich, El Ombú, Gartental, and Colonia Delta.

There is also an important presence of German Jews,[4] with religious activities at the NCI Synagogue.

Institutions

German immigrants established several institutions of their own, among others:

  • German School Montevideo ({{lang-de|Deutsche Schule Montevideo}}, established 1857)[5]
  • German Evangelical Community ({{lang-de|Deutsch-Evangelische Gemeinde Montevideo}})[6]
  • German Cultural and Social Work ({{lang-de|Deutsches Kultur- und Hilfswerk}})[7]

  • German Rowing Club Montevideo ({{lang-de|Deutscher Ruderverein Montevideo}}, established 1922)[9]
  • German Male Choir ({{lang-de|Deutscher Männerchor}})[7]
  • Alpine Club Montevideo ({{lang-de|Alpenländer Verein Montevideo}}, established 1934)[10]
  • Bertolt Brecht House ({{lang-de|Bertolt-Brecht-Haus}}, established 1964)[11]

  • German Cultural Association Paysandú ({{lang-de|Deutsche Kulturvereinigung Paysandú}})[7]
