This report presents the first survey of its kind on how Germans perceive Greece. Based on representative polling data of 2025, it reveals a largely positive image shaped by tourism, cultural interest, and personal encounters while political conflicts and historical legacies remain mostly absent. Germans mostly associate Greece with leisure, not crisis. The study highlights an asymmetry: Germans view Greece more favorably than Greeks view Germany. The latter perception is shaped by unresolved grievances - Germany's stance on WWII reparations, its dominant role during the financial crisis, and its perceived bias toward Turkey in regional disputes. The report also explores the understated role of the Greek diaspora in Germany, not least in gastronomy, as an informal vehicle of soft power.
