God's blessings for the rebirth of the magnificent Notre Dame Cathedral, a hallmark of faith and eternality throughout the centuries. Congratulations to all the experts who have labored, out of love, for the revival of this world landmark. And also, to all the people around the world who have contributed their resources to this project.
Just visited Notre Dame last July during the Paris Olympic Games after 44 years!! Can not describe the feeling with words!!! Thank you to the thousands of people who contributed to make it Possible!!! Chapeou!
@@Megalith_EN Not only that...Its not like they havent been rebuilding on it for the last 800 years..... Sadly could almost call it an upgrade to a newer modern standards... for several hundred more years....
I went to Norte Dame as a teenager in 1960s and again in 2005, what a beautiful cathedral, I only wish more lapsed Catholic’s returned to their faith. God bless to you all from UK
Has it really been 5 years? I can't believe it---I guess time flies when people are brought together to work for one goal. Now THAT is the miracle of Notre Dame.
If the reconstructions are made to the glory of God, they will be magnificent. If they are made for the indulgence of some 'artist', they will be appalling.
"Despite the financial rationale behind the proposal, the idea has met with strong opposition from France's Catholic church." (Shows old men in silk gowns surrounded by art and precious artifacts paid for by congregants). If there's so much opposition, The Vatican could easily cough up a couple billion to pay this off.
I love how the French Catholic Church thinks charging money for entering a church is not in line with their inclusivity. :-) Maybe tell that to all those Catholic churches all over the world who are not shy to ask for money to let you enter.
Well, it is easy for the catholic church to adopt this position, because it costs literally nothing to the institution : in France, the maintenance of the various churches and cathedral is borne by the State, that is to say public money. So, when the clergy refuse to charge the entrance, it can be a very popular decision, but the truth is that this money they refuse to ask could be used for maintenance and restorations, which costs a lot to our public finance. If the catholic church had to take charge of those costs, no doubt the clergy would ask for money.
How much will it cost? Does it matter? Whatever it costs is what it costs. I was there as a nine year old in 1967 with my Grandmother, and I can still remember walking through Notre Dame with my mouth open in wonder. What they have already accomplished is amazing, and I hope they make it as good, or even better, than it was before.
Should you have spoken to a French man or woman as to how to pronounce Notre Dame? American pronunciation is such an irritation. The BBC have made three documentaries about the restoration - superb!
Thanks for the feedback! This is how most Americans pronounce Notre Dame. The script is written in American English and our amazing voice over actor grew up in New York. We’re very sorry it irritates you so much and will try to do better next time! Thank you for watching!
It's more of a museum than a church, so I have no problem with a modest 5 Euro fee. France, like nearly all of western Europe, is atheist. Churches are empty on Sunday, sadly.
Christianity and Islam are amnesty the biggest scams ever played upon the human race. Still, one can appreciate the magnificent artists, sculptures and engineering skills utilized in church buildings ❤
They never had to! A few of the ultra wealthy got ahead to speed things up and have their name forever associated with such great place! Thank you for watching!
Really the poor is as a result of greed by those who will not share what they have with others. Ps the poor need work to look after themselves not a handout again . Think of those who have earned a living or learned a trade on this project.

Amazing! Thank you for watching, we’re glad you liked it!
I couldn’t believe that the job could be done in 5 years ! Amazing 🤩!
Nor could we!

I was in tears watching that fire! 😢
The year was 1163 this is 2024 or 850+ years and having been inside this edifice once and donated to its rebirth...THANK YOU!
We are glad you liked our video. Thank you for watching!

If the 5 euro is announced people will gladly donate. It will be a joyous day
Wonderful building, and I appreciate the restoration by the French. Thank you.
Our pleasure!

Truly! Thank you for watching! We hope you like the rest of our videos and what’s to come!

Not to mention that Notre Dame de Paris, like all cathedrals and churches in France, is owned by the State, not the Catholic Church.
Entrance fee? Controversial? €5, that is nothing for what one would see in 5 minutes!
Everyone relax.
Fees go up
I hope they added fire sprinklers.
They have indeed! Thank you for watching!
I was there , August 2015.
The answer is yes. How about a hard question next time.
November 8th is the feast of the immaculate conception..appropriate for notre dame reopening
To the credit of France...well done.
We agree! Thank you very much for watching!
You should have mentioned that December 8 is the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of Mary, for this cathedral dedicated to her.
Thanks for the feedback and for watching our video!
I was just going to say that!!!! Every good Catholic should know that date!
@ I bet Joe Biden doesn’t know.
Good Luck! ☘

As you probably know the Catholic Church is very poor having given all its wealth away to good causes… oh hang on - no it hasn’t my mistake!

So what was the cause of the fire?

French do not usually have to pay for museum entrance fees.
A few contestable things stated here. But the one that ignores the Eiffel Tower as being the most famous landmark of Paris is a doozy.
Thank you for watching and the feedback Wayne!

In 5 years
How did they dew it?
Amazing isn’t it! Thank you for watching!

Non-religious does not mean atheist.
It's surprizing to learn that the mayor of Paris is not Anne Hidalgo.
That fire happened on the very day Daenerys left her stupid dragons unguarded while fooling around in the landscape with her nephew.
It's a building.
Christianity and Islam are amnesty the biggest scams ever played upon the human race. Still, one can appreciate the magnificent artists, sculptures and engineering skills utilized in church buildings ❤
Why didn't the Catholic church, with its billions of dollars in net worth, pay for the restoration of their property?
They never had to! A few of the ultra wealthy got ahead to speed things up and have their name forever associated with such great place! Thank you for watching!
I've wondered that too!
This video is a waste of time - no new information.
Thank you for watching. We hope not to disappoint you in the next one!
The money spend on restoring could feed the entire world
and then it turns out it is not used to feed people but to build tunnels... I prefer the Notre Dame then...

It’s a waste of time - this video.
We hope you enjoyed our video thank you for watching.
