PIEUX ÉTABLISSEMENTS DE LA FRANCE À ROME ET À LORETTE
The city of Rome is home to the Pieux Établissements de la France à Rome et à Lorette, an institution inherited from the pious French foundations present in the city since the Middle Ages. These establishments comprise five churches and their outbuildings: Trinité des Monts, Saint Louis des Français, Saint Nicolas des Lorrains, Saint Yves des Bretons and Saint Claude des Francs-Comtois de Bourgogne. Their mission is to maintain the religious communities that serve these churches, and to welcome French-speaking pilgrims to Rome. In addition, the Pieux Établissements organize cultural events such as colloquia and concerts, thus contributing to the influence of France in the city. French churches in Rome are also the focus of restoration campaigns carried out in partnership with the French Ministry of Culture and Communication, the Senate of the French Republic and the relevant Italian superintendencies. The Pieux Établissements are placed under the authority of the French Ambassador to the Holy See.
