After five years of extensive restoration following the catastrophic fire in 2019, the iconic Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris is finally reopening to the public. In a heartfelt ceremony, French President Emmanuel Macron celebrated the monumental achievement of restoring this historic masterpiece, which was severely damaged by the blaze. With over $700 million invested in the restoration, Macron expressed his gratitude to the workers who made this incredible feat possible. The cathedral's magnificent interior, including the stunning stained-glass windows, has been restored to its former glory. Join us as we take a first look inside Notre Dame and witness the rebirth of one of the world’s most revered architectural landmarks!

00:002017, Paris.
00:04The most stunning moment of the year.
00:08A special surprise.
00:19Thank you very much.
00:20Good luck, President.
00:23So here we are.
00:24Here we are.
00:25Yes, we are.
00:26Here, too.
00:27Yes, here, too.
00:28I'm very happy to be here.
00:30Hello, Mr President.
00:32You're going to see.
00:36It has appeared.
00:38Entirely renovated.
00:40It's great to see it like this.
00:42It's magnificent.
00:44We anticipated it.
00:46It will cool the air by evaporation.
00:48The same effect as in summer.
00:50We can take it out.
00:52There's no more...
00:54It's him all alone.
00:56All alone.
00:58Sir.
01:00Ladies.
01:04Brigitte.
01:06Brigitte.
01:08Yes.
01:14The joy of 2,000
01:16artisan companions.
01:18Who give us to see
01:20this
01:22extent of the cathedral.
01:24It's magnificent.
01:26Today, in general.
01:28I love it.
01:30The chapels that were
01:32cleaned.
01:34They are the construction of the vaults.
01:36That you see there.
01:40And by saying that,
01:42it can't go without going.
01:44It's one of the symbols
01:46of the cathedral.
01:48I am very moved today.
01:50Because I find the sensations
01:52of this frame
01:54that I had 10 years ago.
01:56They come from all over France.
01:58We had a lot of donors
02:00who gave us chains.
02:02We say sometimes, Rémy,
02:04in the exchange, these frames are human.
02:06Because in fact...
02:08Behind the punch,
02:10Philippe Jost admires.
02:12This arrow is a symbol.
02:14It's the spirit of Notre-Dame.
02:16To make the
02:18assembly.
02:20Iles.
02:30We are in the 13th century.
02:32The construction of the closure
02:34began in 1300.
02:36It was never modified.
02:38There were modifications.
02:40The shock of the reopening
02:42will be, I believe,
02:44as strong as the one
02:46of the fire.
02:48It will be a shock of hope.
02:50Because
02:52all of you,
02:54who are here today,
02:56worked.
02:58This metamorphosis,
03:00we owe it to you.
03:02You were the
03:04alchemists of the construction site.
03:06You transformed
03:08coal
03:10into art, if I may say so.
03:14The fire of Notre-Dame
03:16was eternal and you were its remedy.
03:18By will,
03:20by work,
03:22by commitment.
