On April 15, 2019 a large fire destroyed the back of the Cathedral, losing 75% of the roof and the larger dome that ended up collapsing. The cause of the fire was an incident during the restoration itself.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The President of the Nation, Mr. Macron assured that the Cathedral of Notre Dame<\/strong> will be restored. Until today it is not known how long the restorations will take. What is certain that this monument can no longer be visited until its complete restoration<\/span><\/p>\r\n

The Cathedral of Notre Dame ( Before 2019)<\/span><\/h3>\r\n

The inside of the cathedral<\/strong> stands out for its luminosity, thanks to the large windows that open on the headboard, the clerestory, and the aisles. The choir space preserves part of the 18th century wooden chairs. It has a typical Baroque decoration, with abundance of carved bas-reliefs.\u00a0Most of the stained glass windows were placed during the successive restorations that were made since the 19th century..

\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/a>The Treasure<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\r\n

The treasure of the Cathedral<\/strong> keeps some relics related to the Passion of Christ: the Crown of thorns, a fragment of the True Cross and one of the nails that served for the crucifixion. These relics were purchased by King Louis IX from the Emperor of Constantinople. On August 19, 1239, the King himself brought the relics to Notre-Dame while a suitable building was built for them, which would be the Sainte Chapelle<\/strong>. During the French Revolution, the relics were taken to the National Library<\/strong>. After the Concordat of 1801, they were handed over to the archbishop of Paris, who deposited them again in the cathedral on August 10, 1806.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n
