In 2019, the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris caught on fire, and this week, more than 5 years later, visitors will be able to enter the building once again.

Five years after Paris watched Notre Dame Cathedral burn, the 861-year-old structure has been restored. It is slated to reopen its doors to the public on Sunday, December 8, with two Catholic masses will commemorating the event.

Five years after a catastrophic fire reduced Notre Dame Cathedral to a smoldering shell, the Associated Press entered the Gothic masterpiece for a first glimpse of its fully restored interiors during a visit with French President Emmanuel Macron that was broadcast to the public.
