 '''Deutsches Haus''', founded in [[1911]], was the first foreign [[language house]] established at an American university. Once a major center of Germanic language and cultural studies in New York, Columbia's Deutsches Haus has ceded its position in recent years to [[NYU]]'s, though it still manages to attract a handful of interesting speakers and events.
-In addition to its German affiliations, DH is also affiliated with the Dutch, Finnish, Swedish, and Yiddish programs. Originally located in a now-demolished townhouse on [[117th Street]], where it was near the [[Frankfurt School]]'s Institute for Social Research, it is now on the ground floor of the King's Crown building ([[420 West 116th Street]]), designed by Naville and Bagge and built in [[1906]].

[[Maison Francaise]] would get the space 3 years later.
 After being tried for "insulting Turkishness" in his native country, Nobel-prize winning author [[Orhan Pamuk]] took refuge here to write his latest novel. Consequently, he was at Columbia when the [[Nobel Prize]] announcement came.
