Italienisches Kulturinstitut, Cultural institute in Lindenthal, Germany.
The Italienisches Kulturinstitut occupies a U-shaped building complex with a stepped northern facade along Universitätsstr. 81 in Cologne's Lindenthal district.
Following its 1931 establishment as Petrarca-Haus by Konrad Adenauer, the institute reopened in 1954 at its current location after wartime destruction.
The institute maintains a collection of 18,000 books focused on Italian literature and regional studies, plus magazines supporting language acquisition.
Visitors can access Italian cultural resources through exhibitions, language courses, film screenings, and art presentations at the 250-seat theater.
The building's 1950s flat-roof architecture received protected status and includes a northern wing parallel to the Lindenthal Canal.
