Almost there after the horrific fire five years ago

On this day, April 15, 2019 the Notre-Dame cathedral in Paris was destroyed by fire.

It had been planned to have the cathedral reopened for the Olympic Games in the city this summer but that is now not going to happen.

It’s hoped to open the cathedral on later this years on December 8, the feast of the Immaculate Conception.

The estimated cost of the rebuild is estimated at €850 million. President Emmanuel Macron pledged to have the restored cathedral open within five years.
