!!!Cultural Institutes
 
Cultural Institutes ("Kulturforen"): Austria has a number of cultural institutes abroad, 
which are under the authority of the Federal Ministry for European and International Affairs and serve as information centres for all matters concerning cultural and scientific relations. They convey knowledge about Austria 
abroad by organizing events, contacts to the press and other informational activities.

In Austria there are cultural institutes of the USA (Vienna, since 
1946), Great Britain (British Council, Vienna, 1934), France 
(Innsbruck 1946, Vienna 1947), Italy (Vienna 1935, Innsbruck 1952) 
Poland and Hungary. Cultural institutes serve as cultural 
intermediaries for those wishing to promote culture abroad. Apart from 
these there are numerous associations and societies (many of them
