Carl-Schurz-Haus, German-American cultural center in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany.

The Carl-Schurz-Haus functions as a binational institute operating 250 events annually, covering contemporary social and cultural topics between Germany and the United States.

The United States Information Agency established this center in 1952 as Amerika-Haus, which later transformed into the Carl-Schurz-Haus in 1969 to honor German-American relations.

The center maintains an American library containing 12,000 books, 5,000 films, and 50 periodicals, supporting educational and cultural exchange between German and American communities.

English language courses at Carl-Schurz-Haus are conducted by native speakers, with the library opening Tuesday through Friday from 11:30 AM to 6:00 PM and Saturday from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM.

Students from the Freiburg region can apply for scholarships to study in Madison, Wisconsin, through partnerships facilitated by the Carl-Schurz-Haus exchange program.
