Cultural borders in Germany often follow the borders of the "Bundesländer" (federal states), but not always. Sometimes cultural regions are also centered around metropolitan areas.

Some important cultural regions:

- Bavaria which has a very distinct culture with its own traditions, dialect and is also very catholic.

- The Ruhr area which is most densely populated and very urban. The culture reflects the region's industrial history

- East Germany, where the influence of the communist past is still present, for example less than 50% belong to a Christian denomination.

- Rhineland which is famous for wine and carnival. Mostly catholic.

- Franconia, which is part of Bavaria, but has different traditions, identity and a different dialect.

- Schleswig-Holstein and the area around Hamburg form a northern cultural region where the sea plays an important role. mostly protestant.

- Lausitz or Lusatia, which is home of the Sorbs, a non-German-speaking minority. Also has cultural ties to Poland.
