Founded by a grand-ducal royal decree on 24 October 1868, the “Institut Grand-Ducal” was endowed with a new statute last December, just before celebrating its 150th anniversary, recognising it as a legal person governed by public law. Its goal for the future is to open up more broadly to the public. The idea of creating an “anniversary” stamp is part of this policy of openness. A creative contest was organised with the arts education classes of secondary schools in Luxembourg.
