Notre Dame reopens today with global leaders including Trump and Prince William in attendance
Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris will reopen today, five years after a devastating fire. French President Emmanuel Macron and US President-elect Donald Trump will attend the celebration, which has shifted indoors due to severe weather forecasts. The restoration, costing around 700 million euros, was funded entirely by donations. The reopening ceremony will feature around 50 global leaders and artists, including Prince William and performers like Paul McCartney. Public access to Notre Dame will resume on December 9. The reopening festivities include a symbolic ceremony, a concert with international artists, and a Mass led by the Paris archbishop.
