A maison de l’Allemagne had to wait until the fifties to be realised. Johannes Krahn, the designer of several public facilities and religious monuments, designed one of the most modern structures of his time by combining concrete, steel and glass.
In 2000, the garden acquired a bronze bust of Octave Simon in memory of Guillaume Fichet (1433-1480), the designer of the first French print, which was made in 1470 at the Sorbonne, 20 years after Gutenberg’s invention.
Thanks to its 43 houses, the Cité internationale offers a rich cultural and artistic program to all audiences : concerts, screenings, conferences, exhibitions, shows…
Discover them in our cultural agenda CitéScope.
Every house runs thanks to a professional and dedicated team. Whether they are in charge of hospitality, planning, maintenance or security, they are all committed to making sure that your stay in the building goes smoothly.
The campus is yours so take part in organising its social and cultural life! Residents are elected within your house every year. They take care of the organisation and representation of residents with the house’s administration. We also encourage resident engagement in collective projects and in the organisation of cultural and artistic events.
