We live in a world where the need to master English language is increasing in all aspects of life. Therefore educators and policy makers must emphasize the quality of EFL learning. An important step towards this endeavor is to work on students’ cultural competence. This will familiarize them with the target language; hence allow the learning process to become much easier. This exploratory study is an attempt to investigate the level of EFL cultural knowledge among Algerian secondary school students. It is conducted by distributing a test to 3rd year students in Abid Merrouche Secondary School, El Meghaier, Algeria. The results are reported and evaluated in hopes they would provide thorough information on the subject and form the basis for further actions towards the betterment of the EFL education in the Algerian context.
