The bells of Notre Dame Cathedral rang for the first time since the devastating 2019 fire, marking a significant moment in its restoration journey.
Inside, the cathedral was transformed; the soaring ceilings and stones are now white, and the once-damaged space is breathtakingly pristine.
A powerful ceremony included the Archbishop using a staff made from charred timber to symbolically ask Notre Dame to open its doors once again.
The emotion peaked during the 'waking the organ' ceremony, after 5.5 years of silence, as the Archbishop invited the sacred organ to awaken.
