5 years after the directed energy attack . . . There!, I fixed your title to a more truthful one.
Excellent news!! ……when you have a BILLION $$$, anything is possible!!
Amazing speed
Never lose your heritage… your descendants will pay the price for it.
With the grime of centuries of incense smoke removed, the interior will be a startling revelation. I remember It as gloomy and grey. Congratulations, France.
What a magnificent achievement! You can be proud of this! I will come to Paris just to see Notre Dame!
I can imagine how crowded it will be lol
I think the progress being made on the restoration of Notre Dame de Paris is fantastic. God bless all those involved in this inspired effort. I hope to see it in person and pray there in the next couple years.
Wonderful news! Reborn like a phoenix out of the ashes, may she bring joy, hope and peace to all who visit her!
Absolutely incredible! After the fire, the task seemed so daunting. Now here we are and it has come back to life. Thank you to all the craftsman for your hard work and dedication.
But that new spire belongs in Las Vegas, not on Notre Dame.
"Nearly"? I'll be in Paris in September, will I be able to tour the church? Or is it not 'nearly' restored…
The paintings have restored…. Johann of Arc ! Oops….
A restoration that has brought back the splendor of this glorious Cathedral. So many dedicated and skilled workers have made this possible. Bless them all
Most wonderful with the notable exception of the altar which is totally out of place in this magnificent building.
Notre Dame is more than a Church
Vive La France! A magnificent achievement!
I was fortunate to attend a service a number of years ago and was heartbroken when this magnificent place caught fire. Thank God for the reconstruction and renaissance through people, efforts, money, time etc.!!!!!
Everyone is missing the most important learning moment of the restoration. Most historic buildings burn during restoration, and a night fire watchman is a heck of a lot cheaper than rebuilding.
It's been 5 years scene the fire.
