The last two years will long be remembered as a time of struggle and tragedy. In collaboration with UNESCO, the government of Luxembourg, and Neimënster Abbey, the IDA's reconstruction of Palmyra’s Triumphal Arch was displayed in the Abbey’s historic cloister as a symbol of human resilience. In conjunction with this installation, the IDA hosted a series of lectures exploring the role of art, history and heritage during times of global crisis.

Neimënster Abbey, an historic landmark in central Luxembourg, has a rich and complex history. The earliest records of a church on the site date back to 983 BCE.  By the beginning of the 16th century, the area around the Abbey had become a thriving artisanal district. In the mid-16th century, however, fire destroyed the old Abbey.  Construction on the current Abbey structure began in 1606. It remained a holy site until 1796, after which the building served variously as a garrison and a prison.  In 1984, the site was redeveloped as a cultural and intellectual center, the purpose it serves today.
