Le Lieu d'Europe

A place of education in European citizenship open to all, the vocation of the Lieu d’Europe is to make Europe known to citizens and to strengthen their feeling of belonging to a community of values.

Endowed with a permanent exhibition, a resource centre coordinated by the Information Centre on European Institutions and meeting and discussion rooms, the Lieu d’Europe’s mission is to:

- Inform the general public on institutions, the history of Europe and its close links with the history of Strasbourg, together with European news,

- Promote construction of European citizenship and stimulate exchanges of ideas and debate,

- Bring citizens closer to European institutions,

- Explain and share values of democracy, peace and human rights,

- Make the wealth and cultural diversity of the different European countries known to all.
