Notre Dame Cathedral reopens in Paris after five-year restoration
Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris is reopening on Saturday after a five-year restoration following a devastating fire in 2019. The event will be attended by world leaders, including President Emmanuel Macron, and aims to symbolize unity amid global conflicts. The reopening ceremony will take place inside the cathedral due to forecasted strong winds. Archbishop Laurent Ulrich will officially reopen Notre Dame's doors, followed by a liturgical service and a concert featuring renowned artists. The restoration is seen as a significant achievement, with Notre Dame expected to attract 15 million visitors annually. Security will be tight, and access to the area will be restricted to invited guests and residents.
