Summary
Nudism, known as Freikoerperkultur (FKK) in Germany, is rooted in the country's history and is popular in saunas, swimming pools, parks, and beaches. Despite its decline in popularity among young people, there are still about 600,000 Germans registered in more than 300 private nudist/FKK clubs and a variety of designated FKK beaches and nudist zones in public parks and on beaches.
