In the Central Administrative District of Moscow, in the Yakimanka district, at ul. The Great Yakimanka, 45, houses the embassy of France. The ambassador's residence is located a little further, in the historic house of the merchant Igumnov. The construction of the mansion (Bolshaya Yakimanka St., 43) was completed in 1895. The closest metro stations to the diplomatic representation are Oktyabrskaya and Polyanka.

It is curious that the consulate of France in Moscow, which is located in the embassy building, has its own separate address: per. Kazansky, 10. The whole point is that the entrance to the consular department is located on the opposite side of the building, which goes just in Kazan Lane.

This is not the only diplomatic mission of France in Russia. There are general consulates in St. Petersburg (Moika Embankment, 15) and Yekaterinburg (Karl Liebknecht Str., 22, office 401). For the convenience of citizens, three visa centers have been opened in Russia: in Moscow (3, Marxist street, page 2), St. Petersburg (Shpalernaya street 3), Yekaterinburg (Karl Libknekhta street 22, office 313).
