Armenians in Germany are ethnic Armenians living within the modern republic of Germany . Like much of the Armenian diaspora , most Armenians immigrated to Germany after the Armenian Genocide of 1915 . Others came later , fleeing conflicts in places like Iran , Azerbaijan and Lebanon . Another influx came fleeing nationalist persecution in Turkey . After World War II , many Soviet Armenians , former POWs in particular , fled to the American occupied areas of Germany . While many traveled on , some settled in the country , providing a base for later asylum-seekers
