Parthenon Sculptures (EDM1546)

Parthenon Sculptures

EDM number 1546 in 2005-06, proposed by Andrew Dismore on 01/02/2006.

That this House notes that for the first time a foreign museum, the Antiquities Museum of the University of Heidelberg, has decided to return to Greece its piece of the north frieze of the Parthenon; calls upon the British Museum to follow this excellent example and return the parts of the Parthenon sculpture it holds to Athens so that they can be reunited with the remainder of the sculptures in Greece; and looks forward to the day when the world can see all the surviving parts of the Parthenon sculptures reunited in their historical and geographical context in the new Acropolis Museum in Athens.

This motion has been signed by a total of 31 MPs.
