Conseil de l'Europe

On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the Council of Europe and the 60th anniversary of the European Court of Human Rights, there will be an Open Day on Sunday, May 5, 2019 from 10.00 to 18.00. You can find out where and how the rights and freedoms of more than 820 million citizens of 47 European countries are protected. A unique opportunity to visit the building of the Palace of Europe in Strasbourg. Last year was at a similar event in the European Parliament. Unforgettably. 04/29/2019

Very impressive building. We had a very good tour of the Council of Europe with a very dedicated leadership. We recommend.

It is extremely interesting to be part of a session

As a European citizen, she said that we should all visit the workplace of those who represent us. It belongs to everyone, we all contribute.

A great visit for our group of students, with a really great welcome from the people who received us, and explained to us the usefulness and the functioning of the Council of Europe ... this little-known but so noble institution! To discover !

A beautiful place, which was designed by the same architect as the Maison de la Radio, in Paris. An institution little known in France, but which has a key role in the safeguarding of human rights, beyond the European Union (Balkans, Turkey, Caucasus, Russia), although its founding texts have aged a little with time.

Sweeter experience that is not sweet, despite the grandiosity and pomposity of the building. As a European, I do not know how useful this institution can be. In a joyful poster on the front and in front of the garden you can read our rights, our freedom and our Europe, which must be that of the states that, like Spanish, have many nations discriminated against under supremacist and uniform laws. According to the king, democracy is subordinate to the law and nobody tells him that the law is what is subordinated to democracy.

The counsil offers a posibility to make a tower that will make visitors think

Amazing and important place to visit. It's free and open for everyone. Please bring your ID card and show in the entrance. I strongly recommend this place for visit, especially with the kids. It takes one hour at most and really great. Enjoy your visit. Also, there is a park near where you can continue a nice day.

The organization itself deserves 5 stars. The building, however, is quite unusable - the architecture of the plenum hall definitely has something to do with it, but the rest is quite horrifying, both visually and functionally. Some floors resemble mazes.

A body that has managed in recent years to bring together and bring together representatives of many European countries, to legislate on the civil, social and cultural rights of Europeans, and integrate citizens towards a single feeling of peace and collaboration.

A nice example of the architecture of 70's. A very enthusiastic guide willing to answer any of your questions.

Strasbourg Council of Europe headquarters building. An imposing building, you can attend council meetings if you are lucky.

Place of exchanges and dialogues, guarantor of democracy

Wonderful institution visit by appointment and in groups

The main building ("the Palace") is very ugly from the outside but the hemicycle is impressive. As for the Court, nothing to do. However the building opposite (Agora) is beautiful, especially in the evening when the interior is lit

I inform the European Commissioner Julian King that human rights are not being respected in Romania ,i as ATHEIST are being discriminated against by Orthodox Christians who are mostly in Romania,i have problems in finding a job ,in the future i have to justify my self by any means ....maybe even lethal

The building is definitely worth a visit. The hemicycle is very impressive. Too bad the clothes on sale at the souvenir shop are Made in Bangladesh ...

A little awkward building, but that doesn't change an experience of the international rush from the place.

Very beautiful inside. By cons from the outside we do not expect it to be so beautiful and so big.

they like money that Russia provides to eat fancy dishes and drink high priced alcohol

I really recommend everyone to visit this place. The guide was very pleasant and, despite the light French accent, she could understand everything. In the beginning, they will give you a piece of the Council document and then a discussion. The main room itself is fascinating. Obligation for those who have hockey in organizations such as the Council of the EU, the Council of Europe and the European Council.

Another important institution for cohabitation in Europe, even for non-EU member states.

Awful looking building. It would be suitable for the Orc fortress in Warcraft, and not for the seat of an institution of European rank.

Headquarters building of the Council of Europe. There are facilities for all needs. Everything from eating and drinking to the photocopy room has been considered. The only problem is that the building is not renewed due to lack of budget, I even saw a seat without a sponge.

The exterior of the building is solid, inside it is also stylish at the time.

you are very expensive! I'm really waiting for a French brexit but we will need a courageous government! so it's not tomorrow

Another institution for which hotels in Strasbourg allow them to be in a poor condition , with desperate staff and scandalous prices for the level of service they offer.

The European Council is a collective council with 47 European countries. It is different from the EU. The Venice Commission and some other agencies are located in other buildings around.

Nevertheless, the Council of Europe still has a significant function. At its very headquarters, when significant events take place, the organization is always good and journalists have excellent working conditions.

Interesting tour but it is better to go during the sessions to attend the debates.

Big building, cool architechture. Dominant language inside is French, normally. Inside there are historic pieces which represent every country such as the document Magna Carta representing England. I don't think it is really visitor-friendly.

I was there for the epa regional Minientreprise championship as an alumni. The least we can say is that this building is grand!

The only place where Serbian citizens can get justice.

Huge atrium building from the 80s, a bit chunky and reminiscent of a fortress, inside quite dark, but impressive
