Banat Highland Germans

The Banat Highland Germans or Banat Mountainous Germans (German: Banater Berglanddeutsche, Romanian: Germanii din Banatul montan) are an ethnic German sub-group which is part of the Banat Swabians (and the broader Danube Swabian group) who have been living in the mountainous part of the Banat (German: Banater Bergland or Montanbanat), corresponding to Caraș-Severin County situated in present-day south-western Romania (and to a smaller extent Serbia as well). Within the larger community of Banat Highland Germans, there have also been Zipser Germans (German: Zipser Sachsen), an ethnic German minority group which mostly settled in Maramureș and southern Bucovina from Zips, present-day Slovakia.
