Oktoberfest



Location: The German-American Heritage Center is easy to find.

From Chicago—I-57 south to Exit 335-Manhattan/Monee Road right (west) for 4.3 miles to 96th Avenue. Turn right (north) for 0.3 miles and our building is on the right.

From west—I-80 exit LaGrange Road (Rt 45) south 5.1 miles to Laraway Road. Turn left (east) for 1.3 miles to Center Road. Turn right (south) for 3.9 miles and our building is on the left.

The German American National Congress, also known as DANK (Deutsch Amerikanischer National Kongress), is the largest organization of Americans of German descent. The DANK has some 30 chapters and over 100 associated member societies from coast to coast.

The DANK organization seeks to bring together Americans of German descent in the pursuit of cultivating and presenting their heritage and interests on local, regional and national levels. These were the primary reasons that DANK (German American National Congress) was founded in 1959, and they are still among the primary objectives of DANK today.
