The bells of Notre-Dame are ringing again,” French President Emmanuel Macron declared during the reopening ceremony of the world-famous cathedral in Paris.

The medieval cathedral had been closed since a major fire tore through it in 2019, spreading through its roof and toppling its spire.

During the event, French President Emmanuel Macron delivered a speech in which he said of the restoration: “We must treasure this lesson of fragility, humility and will”.
