Contemporary breeding of the Deutsche Bracke started in the mid 20th century in the small town of Olpe, North Rhine-Westphalia in the very west of Germany, which explains one of its alternative monikers: the Olpe Bracke.
In terms of physique and behavior, the Deutsche Bracke has all the qualities and natural aptitudes of a hound. As such, it is very important that dogs of this breed work and live outdoors.

The Westphalia Bracke was the sole survivor of the many Bracke breeds that used to populate Germany. The most important local variety was the tricolor Sauelander, which was crossbred with the local Steinbracke to produce a breed that has been known as the Deutsche Bracke since 1900.Light, tall and elegant, but nevertheless solidly built, the Deutsche Bracke has a comparatively fine, noble head, good ears and in comparison to the rest,a remarkably thick well carried tail , and an abdomen that is slightly tucked up.
