About the producer

The Phoenix has marked civilisations throughout time. The Persians, Greeks and Romans considered it a symbol of rebirth and serenity. For hundreds of years, its mystical powers have inspired people who yearned for freedom and sought to find themselves. Originating as early as 1128, its name is strongly linked to the founding, by Saint Norbert, of the Abbey of Grimbergen, near Brussels. Destroyed in a devastating fire for the first time in 1142, then in 1566 and 1798, the Abbey was rebuilt each time. The monks of Grimbergen adopted the symbol of the Phoenix to emphasise the struggle to preserve the authentic values of the monastery, despite the many devastating fires, and adopted a motto in its honour: “Ardet nec consumitur” / “Burnt, but not destroyed”.
