The Institut français says about itself:
“The Institut français is made up of over 200 organisations worldwide that are committed to the dissemination of the French language and culture as well as the further development of intercultural exchange on an international level.
In Germany, the first Institut français was founded in Freiburg in 1949. Over the years, numerous other Instituts français and independent Centres franco-allemands (cultural centres) were added. Today, the Institut français d’Allemagne, together with its partner institutions, offers the broadest network of French cultural institutes in the world.
The Institut français Bremen is a meeting place for Francophiles in the city of Bremen, which organises language courses and official French language certificates and offers a large cultural programme (readings, concerts, lectures). Cinema evenings for the Bremen public are held several times a month in the adjoining cinema, while readings for children take place in the media library.”
