After more than five years of meticulous restoration following a devastating fire of April 19, 2019, the iconic Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris is set to reopen this weekend. The highly anticipated event marks a historic milestone for one of the world’s most beloved landmarks.
The reopening ceremonies will begin on Saturday afternoon with a symbolic service led by Paris Archbishop Laurent Ulrich. He will strike the cathedral’s doors with his staff, a traditional gesture to signify the reopening. The archbishop will also breathe life back into Notre-Dame’s legendary grand organ, whose 8,000 pipes—coated in toxic dust from the fire—have been painstakingly disassembled, cleaned, and restored.
