Located in beautiful Balboa Park in San Diego, California, the House of Germany is one of the International Cottages affiliated with the House of Pacific Relations. The goal of the houses is to further the pursuit of "pacific", or peaceful, relations among nations. The House of Germany was founded in 1935 and to this day has a very active membership, long standing traditions, and maintains strong ties to Germany.

The cottage is open to visitors on Saturdays and Sundays from 11:00 AM through 4:00 PM and on select Tuesdays as part of the Free Resident Tuesdays in Balboa Park. Visitors are welcome to view the displays of photos, a video presentation, and cultural items. Volunteer House of Germany members serve refreshments and are happy to chat.
