About the Event
German Village is one of Saint Simons Island’s oldest neighborhoods. Although the subdivision was officially platted in 1922, German Salzburgers called this land home nearly two centuries earlier under General Oglethorpe. Today, the modest community offers one of the few remaining glimpses of Island life before the rise of development pressures. German Village is now threatened by the St. Simons Land Trust and Georgia DNR plans to route traffic to a public boat launch and regional waterfront park through the heart of the small residential neighborhood. The SSLT plans no other vehicle access to the waterfront park than through our small neighborhood street. Come learn more about this community's fight to save their neighborhood.
