Notre Dame de Paris

 

Yesterday evening the famous Notre Dame cathedral in Paris, France, burned down with significant fire damage to the main structure and spire of the landmark. This is a terrible tragedy and loss to Paris, France and the world. Sad thing to happen, but this could be the beginning of a new Notre Dame.
