Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris will reopen to the public on December 8th, five years after a devastating fire in 2019. While the interior has been restored, scaffolding remains on the exterior, raising questions about the extent of the renovations. French President Emmanuel Macron is scheduled to inspect the progress and witness the renovated interiors on Friday. The reopening marks a significant milestone, though some Parisians are unsure if it is more symbolic than substantive.
