關於
The Palais de France (lit. 'Palace of France', Turkish: Fransız Sarayı) is a historic property in the Beyoğlu (formerly Pera) neighborhood of Istanbul, Turkey. It was the seat of the ambassadors of France to the Ottoman Empire from the early 17th century until the Empire's abolition in 1922 and subsequent relocation of the embassy to the new capital of Ankara. It has served since then as the residence of the French Consul-General as well as of the ambassador when in Istanbul. It is also the site of the church of Saint-Louis-des-Français, the Lycée Français Pierre Loti, and the Institut Français d'Études Anatoliennes, a research institute.
The French Consulate-General is located in a separate building of the same neighborhood, near Taksim Square. In addition, France maintains a property in the waterside neighborhood of Tarabya on the Bosporus, with additional facilities of the Lycée Pierre Loti.
