Restored Notre-Dame Cathedral unveiled in Paris after five-year renovation effort

ai generated text

Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris has been fully restored after a devastating fire in 2019. Macron praised the workers who contributed to the restoration, stating that they had "achieved the impossible" and that the blaze had been a "national wound" that they had helped to remedy through their "will, work, and commitment." The cathedral's interior and exterior have been refurbished to their original grandeur, including the installation of new stained-glass windows, a restored timber-framed roof, and a newly built altar cross. The cathedral officially reopened on December 7, 2024, with Macron leading a televised tour of the restored site.

    1. Canada will stand with France and ensure we offer all the support — whether it's steel or wood or whatever help we can.
    2. This is truly a piece — not just of French history — but of world history that needs to be preserved, and we will be there to be part of it.
    1. On the night of April 15, hundreds of thousands of people committed themselves to what then seemed an impossible bet: to restore the cathedral and give it back its splendour within the unprecedented deadline of five years.
    2. When I saw it being lowered into place on the hoist, I had the impression that it was coming down from Heaven.
    1. This final site visit is an opportunity to thank them in particular – from wood craftsmen to those of metal and stone, from scaffolders to roofers, from bell makers to art restorers, from gilders to masons and sculptors, from carpenters to organ builders, from architects, archaeologists, engineers and planners to logistical or administrative functions.
    2. I am so deeply grateful, France is so deeply grateful.
    3. The blaze at Notre Dame was a national wound and you were the remedy, through your determination, hard work and commitment.
    4. This is an immense source of pride for the entire nation.
    1. Even if other needs exist in terms of restoration and preservation, it is really fundamental for us to respect the intention of donors. When someone donates for the restoration of Notre-Dame, they are not giving it for a cathedral in another city.
    1. There was a great danger that the entire church would collapse.
    2. Normally you leave oak until it's dry and only then do you use it. But that was of course due to time pressure. And you can only hope that it goes well.
    3. All it would have taken was one storm, and the damage would have been immense.
