The Cité international de la langue française is a cultural and living place entirely dedicated to the French language and French-speaking cultures, in the castle of Villers-Cotterêts. Between the city and the countryside, the Cité internationale de la langue française benefits from an exceptional natural environment, to be discovered during a walk or a bike ride. The forest of Retz, labeled forest of exception, surrounds the Cité internationale de la langue française.
