This eTwinning project is a collaborative entry for the 64th European Competition 2017 under the motto of “United in diversity – Europe between tradition and the modern age”. It is part of Module 4 (11th-13th grade / 17-21 years old): Friedrich Hölderlin wrote, "You cities of the Euphrates! You streets of Palmyra! You column forests in the desert plain, what are you?" Numerous European artists and authors were impressed by the antique oasis city of Palmyra. Many of their testimonies have now been destroyed in the Syrian Civil War. Let's find out how we deal with our cultural heritage.
