Notre Dame Cathedral on Fire
Seeing thousands out on the streets watching one of the symbols of their city burn is pretty moving.
I visited once, and the scale of it was overwhelming. It's hard to imagine something that huge on fire.

Re: Notre Dame Cathedral on Fire
Always sad to see anything that iconic be destroyed. From the looks of the videos posted so far, it's pretty bad.
I was in Paris once about 15 years ago for a class. I'm not Catholic, but a bunch of us went to mass at Notre Dame. I'm really glad I did.

Well, this should make the renovations easier.

One gets the feeling this isn't going to end well. Apparently there's been a string of church vandalisms and it's believed that this was intentional.
