The center is located in the 10th arrondissement of Paris, at 16 Rue d'Enghien. The center is named posthumously in honor of the Turkish-Kurdish folk singer and composer, Ahmet Kaya, who was the son of a Kurdish father and Turkish mother. Kaya died of a heart attack on 16 November 2000 while living in exile from Turkey.[1]
On 23 December 2022, the Ahmet Kaya Kurdish Cultural Centre was the target of a mass shooting attack. Three people were killed in the attack on the center and two adjoining Kurdish businesses, a hairdressing salon and the Avesta Cuisine Traditionnelle Kurde restaurant on Rue d'Enghien.[2]
