Germany has a long and widely accepted tradition of naturism, known as FKK (Freikörperkultur or "free body culture"). Public nudity is legal and common in designated areas, especially in parks, lakes, saunas, and beaches.
Clothing-optional beaches are found along the Baltic and North Sea coasts (like Ahlbeck, Timmendorfer Strand, and Nudist Beach Prerow) as well as inland lakes such as Wannsee in Berlin or English Garden in Munich. Many city parks also have FKK zones.
Naturism in Germany is seen as healthy, non-sexual, and family-friendly. Rules emphasize respect, no photography, and appropriate behavior. Overall, Germany is one of the most open and naturist-friendly countries in Europe.
