English: Within the framework of the International Campaign launched by UNESCO in 1960 to save the monuments of Nubia, the salvage of Philae marks the culmination of the largest campaign in support of safeguarding the human heritage. Following the construction of the Aswan High Dam, these temples were threatened with ruin and so at the Egyptian Government's request, a group of experts was set up. It was decided to dismantle and re-erect the monument on the neighbouring island of Agilkia which is sufficiently elevated to be above the maximum water level. UNESCO then launched an international campaign on 6 November 1968 and the works were carried out under the supervision of the Egyptian Antiquities Organization. The inauguration of the new site is planned to take place on 10 March 1980.
Français : Dans le cadre de la Campagne internationale lancée par l'UNESCO en 1960 pour la sauvegarde des monuments de Nubie, le sauvetage des temples de Philae représente le point culminant de la plus importante campagne lancée pour la préservation du patrimoine culturel de l'humanité. Ces temples étaient menacés d'effondrement à la suite de la construction du Haut-Barrage d'Assouan et, à la demande du Gouvernement égyptien, un groupe d'experts fut nommé. Il fut décidé de les démonter et de les reconstruire sur l'île voisine d'Agilkia, assez élevée pour toujours émerger au-dessus du niveau maximum des eaux. L'UNESCO lança alors un appel à la solidarité internationale le 6 Novembre 1968 et les travaux furent entrepris sous la supervision de l'Organisation des Antiquités égyptiennes. L'inauguration du nouveau site est prévue pour le 10 Mars 1980.
