TL;DR Summary

Paris' Notre Dame Cathedral receives a new golden rooster, symbolizing hope and rebirth, as part of its ongoing restoration following the devastating fire in 2019. The rooster, blessed by the archbishop of Paris, contains relics and a list of the 2,000 people involved in the cathedral's reconstruction. French President Emmanuel Macron aims to reopen the cathedral in December 2024, with over €848 million ($925 million) raised in donations for the project. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
