Statute overview

About this statute

This law concerns archaeological and other scientific excavations, the safeguarding of movable cultural heritage, and penalties. Les recherches ou fouilles visant des objets ou sites d’intérêt historique, préhistorique, paléontologique ou scientifique ne peuvent être entreprises qu’avec l’autorisation du ministre compétent. The Minister may stop research or excavations carried out in breach of articles 1 and 2. L’Etat peut revendiquer certains objets découverts lors de fouilles ou trouvés par hasard, moyennant une indemnité juste et préalable. The Minister for Arts and Sciences designates the bodies or authorities that will take necessary measures to preserve certain objects; the owner may claim damages unless the measures became necessary because the owner failed to follow legal prescriptions.
