French Institute for Scotland, Cultural center in Old Town, Edinburgh, United Kingdom.

The French Institute for Scotland operates from Lothian Chambers, providing French language education and cultural programs to Edinburgh residents and visitors.

The French Institute for Scotland was established in 1946 by René Massigli, French ambassador to the United Kingdom, initially located in Randolph Crescent.

The Institute maintains a media library containing over 10,000 documents in French, covering literature, art, history, geography, and travel guides.

Five hundred students attend French language courses each term, with additional programs specifically designed for primary and secondary schools throughout the year.

The Institute shares its location with Edinburgh's French consulate on Royal Mile and collaborates with the Cameo cinema for the French Film Festival UK.
