According to the IS-terrorist: What remained of Palmyra left

Four years ago, the IS-terrorist militia occurred in Palmyra and a lot of culture destroyed goods. In the meantime, a lot of art to be restored works from the oasis city with a lot of idealism.

By Anne Allmeling, ARD-Studio, Cairo

four years Ago, the terrorist militia "Islamic state" (IS) conquered the ancient oasis city of Palmyra in Syria. Much of what there was to see there, and have destroyed the terrorists, even the Museum in which many ancient works of art were.

But a part of the ancient treasures could be saved. Professionals you can restore now in a part of hard work and hope, that the almost completely abandoned city attracts again soon tourists from Syria and the Rest of the world. But the road to the desert city, which is under the control of government troops, is time-consuming and far.

highly concentrated Dania Mardini bends over the stone Image of a young man. With modeling plug-in working on his face, shaping the cheekbones and his eyelashes. The likeness of the young man has survived for centuries in the Palmyra - to the IS came.
