Wandering near the Notre-Dame Cathedral, before the fire.

The Notre-Dame Cathedral is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture. Built in the 12th century, it has undergone various modifications and restorations, including the addition of an intricate 96-meter-high spire in 1860. We were on the Seine River in 2005 and captured this image of the cathedral, standing in all its grandeur behind the cast-iron arches of the Pont de Sully. The Notre-Dame Cathedral has witnessed many significant events over the centuries. Tragically, in 2019, a fire destroyed the spire and much of the roof. A major restoration project has been underway since, including the reconstruction of an identical spire. Soon the scaffolding will come down, revealing the cathedral once again in all its glory and closing another chapter in its extraordinary history. (N.B. Scaffolding has now been removed from the rebuilt spire, although scaffolding will remain on the cathedral as renovation work is expected to continue until 2028).

Happy wandering, 
Fran and Trevor
