5 years after Notre Dame caught fire ...

Scaffolding that shrouded the top of Notre Dame Cathedral following a devastating fire in April 2019 is being removed, marking a milestone in its reconstruction.

Archaeologists at the Notre-Dame Cathedral unearthed a lead sarcophagus and fragments of the temple's ancient rood screen, offering a rare insight into the history of the world-famous cathedral currently under reconstruction after a devastating fire in 2019. One of the first finds was a fully preserved anthropomorphic lead sarcophagus was found, which archaeologists say probably belonged to a high dignitary and could date back to the 14th century. “We were able to send a small camera inside which showed cloth remains, organic matter such as hair and plant remains,” said Christophe Besnier from France's National Archaeological Institute on Tuesday. “The fact that these plants are still there indicates that the contents have been very well-preserved.” Notre Dame commissioned the excavation works inside the church as a precautionary measure ahead of the installation of a giant scaffolding needed to restore the around 100-metre-high wooden roof ridge.

From the ashes rose a team of heroes, working tirelessly to revive the soul of Paris. Witness the untold stories, the painstaking efforts, and the triumphs of human ingenuity as they rebuild more than just a cathedral, they rebuild hope.

Paris's Notre Dame Cathedral, ravaged by fire in 2019, is on track to re-open on time on December 8, the head of the reconstruction said Wednesday. The fire at the UNESCO-listed cathedral, which welcomed 12 million visitors a year, shocked the world on April 15, 2019.

If some other magicless person got stuck in Twisted Wonderland and tried to take my place, I'd simply let them. Yeah, bitch, now you take care of these motherfuckers and deal with Crowley's bullshit, see if I fuckin care. Have fun babysitting a bunch of sunovabitches who barely even remember you exist half the time.

I love the angst of "they pushed the Prefect away and replaced them only to miss them when they finally leave", but, also, if I were Yuu, I'd absolutely just let it happen. Call me a pushover, but I ain't shedding a tear for friends who left for the newest shiny thing. And it would relieve me from all the trouble. Guess who's not fighting Overblots anymore? This bastard, that's who.

I still can’t believe that they did this.

One day you're healthy and another you're feeling things for men like that

Miguel: I am a monster, you know. Y/n: He told you that? Miguel: Look at me... Y/N: Give me your hand. Miguel: Why? Y/N: Just let me see it. Y/N: Hmmm. A long life line... Y/N: Oh! And this one means you're shy! Y/N: Hmmm. Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. Y/N: Well, that's funny... Miguel: What? Y/N:I don't see any... Miguel: Any what? Y/N: Monster Lines! Y/N: Not a single one :)

It’s not my fault, I’m not to blame. It is the gypsy girl, the witch who set this flame. It’s not my fault, if in God’s plan, he made the devil so much stronger than a man.

Propaganda: Claude: He never wanted to be a father. In fact he wanted to kill the child he was tasked with raising. Then he emotionally and phytologically and probably physically abused him

Ozai: Burned his son’s face and then exiled until he finished a mission that was supposed to be impossible. Made his daughter believe her only value was as a weapon and drove her to a psychotic break when she realized nothing she did would ever be enough. Played his kids against each other to the point that they tried to kill one another as teenagers.

"This is our Notre Dame, this is our National Treasure" - Exactly 5 years after the fire of the French National Landmark, another Landmark, this time of the Danish capital, the Old Stock Exchange of Copenhagen, is burning

In Copenhagen, a major fire has destroyed the approximately 400-year-old stock exchange. Workers, rescue workers and local residents joined forces to try and save art treasures from the historic building. In front of passers-by, the characteristic spire collapsed onto the street in the city centre.

Denmark’s 400-year-old stock exchange building has burned down during renovation works. The iconic spire of Copenhagen’s Borsen building toppled into the flames early on April 16 in what onlookers branded the city’s ’Notre Dame moment’. The Borsen dates back to 1625 and sits in the historic old part of Copenhagen near the parliament building and royal palace. It was undergoing restoration works at the time and was covered in scaffolding which firefighters said complicated efforts to save the building. Much of the structure, which now houses the Danish Houses of Commerce, is thought to have been damaged in the fire. It was not immediately clear how the blaze started, but it echoed the blaze which destroyed the roof of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris back in 2019. An official cause of that fire has still not been established, though investigators have ruled it was accidental.
