"Notre-Dame: From Fire to Restoration in Timelapse"
Five years after the devastating fire at Notre-Dame cathedral, restoration efforts are nearing completion, with the re-opening scheduled for December and running on schedule. The project has cost 550 million euros, funded in part by massive donations, including from luxury sector billionaires Francois Henri Pinault and the Arnault family. An additional 150 million euros may be used to restore the cathedral and tackle pre-existing problems. French President Macron aims for the restoration to lift the nation's mood as the world's attention turns to Paris for the Olympic Games.
