About us...
The House of France endeavors to maintain and enhance the spirit of understanding, tolerance and goodwill, among its members and with the national entities residing in the city and county of San Diego, by representing the history, traditions and culture of France to schools, cultural groups and private individuals, thanks to its installation in a cottage provided by the city of San Diego under the auspices of the House of Pacific Relations, International cottages, Inc.
The HPR, founded in 1935, consists today of 32 national groups housed in small cottages in Balboa Park.
The House of France gives out flyers and maps.
