In 2019, Notre-Dame temporarily closed due to a fire that broke out beneath the cathedral’s roof. The roof and spire of the structure were destroyed, but the altar, rose windows, and 13th century pipe organ sustained no damage. Renovations are underway and the church is expected to reopen in the spring of 2020.
