The Japanese Culture House was founded in the early 21st century. It refers to the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, when many Japanese artists stayed and created in Paris. The main task of the center is to familiarize the French with exotic Japanese culture.
The center mainly organizes temporary, monographic and cross-sectional exhibitions on specific issues occurring in Japanese culture. There is also a theater and cinema room, as well as places to organize workshops. They concern traditional Japanese artistic techniques, such as origami, manga, ikebana, but also Japanese calligraphy and cooking.
