About German Heritage Society

The German Heritage Society is a cultural organization dedicated to preserving and promoting the rich heritage, language, and traditions of German-speaking peoples and those of German ancestry throughout the Pacific Northwest. Based in Seattle, WA, the organization serves as a vital hub for cultural activities and community engagement, administering the affairs of the historic German House—a landmark building originally constructed as the United States Assay Office in 1885 and converted to serve the German community in 1934.

As a non-profit organization, the German Heritage Society combines its mission of cultural preservation with practical community services, making it an essential resource for anyone interested in German-American heritage, language study, and cultural traditions. The organization's work extends beyond simple nostalgia, actively promoting understanding of the significant contributions German immigrants have made to American society and culture.
