I believe you are already aware of this no matter your religious beliefs, on Monday, April 15, 2019 the Notre-Dame de Paris (Our Lady Of Paris) Cathedral experienced a devastating fire. The 850 year old cathedral has been given many different restoration time frames – a professor of medieval cathedrals stating it would take about two decades to complete. It has also been said they will be closing it for about 5 to 6 years following the fire as it has weakened the cathedral. As of today there have been donations pouring in for the restoration, nearly $1 billion dollars.

The post I share with you today from Trad Cat Fem brings you in great detail the history of the Notre-Dame de Paris Cathedral. I invite you to read as I found it to be so informative, seeing before and after the fire pictures from inside the cathedral, and seeing pictures of the real Crown of Thorns that have been saved from the fire.

It’s part of its history now. Our local gem York Minster years ago was struck by lightning and caught fire. It was restored better than ever. Hopefully it will bring people together rebuilding it.

That’s amazing!
Yes! I thought about that. How in the mist of tragedy, great things do come out at the end. I want to think the cathedral was more of a ‘museum’ or ‘visitors destination’ more than it was a church. This has brought people back to the basis of why the cathedral was there in the first place. Good will come out of this – as it has already.
