President Macron inspected the restoration of Notre-Dame Cathedral, showcasing the work of 2,000 people who completed the 700-million-euro project five years post-fire.
The restoration has returned the cathedral's 19th-century Gothic spire to its former glory and revitalized its stunning interior, attracting an anticipated 14 to 15 million visitors.
The ambitious restoration, funded by donations from 150 countries, reflects a global commitment to preserving cultural heritage, with the reopening set for December 7.
While discussions about charging entrance fees were suggested by French ministers, the Catholic Church insists on maintaining free access to this historic site.
