Macron lauds artisans for restoring Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris

PARIS (Reuters) -French President Emmanuel Macron praised on Friday the more than 1,000 craftspeople who helped rebuild Paris' Notre-Dame Cathedral in what he called "the project of the century", five-and-a-half years after fire gutted the Gothic masterpiece. The 12th-century cathedral, one of the French capital's most beloved and visited monuments, will reopen its doors next week to tourists and to the Catholic faithful. "The burning of Notre-Dame was a national wound and you were its remedy, (restoring it) through determination, hard work and commitment."
