In France, a large-scale reconstruction of the Le Ville cultural center has been completed. This historic estate, located 30 kilometers from Paris, has become a main hub of Georgian political emigration history since the Soviet occupation of 1921. The center presents Le Ville as a flagship cultural hub of Georgia in the heart of Europe.
The opening ceremony was attended by a number of prominent figures including former Minister Irakli Kobakhidze, former Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili, Minister of Culture Maya Bitadze, and heads of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Internal Affairs, as well as deputies of the Georgian Parliament and Georgian musicians.
The center covers an area of about 4.5 hectares. Its architectural design features a two-story chateau surrounded by gardens, fountains, and Georgian musical instruments.
This new cultural center aims to strengthen the cultural ties between Georgia and Europe, showcasing Georgian heritage and history to millions of visitors.
