- It is one of the most famous buildings in the world. It has stood on the banks of the river Seine for more than 800 years. Tonight Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris is completely engulfed by fire.
Huge crowds gathered in the streets around it - many were in tears. Notre Dame took 200 years to build - it's one of the greatest treasures of medieval architecture. Tonight it lies in ruins.
BBC News at Ten’s breaking coverage of the decimation of one of the world’s most iconic buildings, with Sophie Raworth, Lucy Williamson and Fergal Keane.

it's not 'just a building.' It stood for over 800 years, took 200 to build, and is the work so many dedicated believers. We cannot begin to imagine how many people have visited Notre Dame, how many drew comfort from it, and how many, even if not Catholic, treasured it as a symbol of Paris and the surrounding community. It was a work of art and an important piece of history. Thank god no one lost their lives, and I believe they should rebuild, but it's a terrible loss.
I will help rebuild. With over a billion faithful, I'm sure we can scrape together the funds.
Tracey Kinney Here,Here to that Tracey.
My local church is 800 years old and I often think about the men who built it.
Many never living to see
the 'fruits of their labours'.
They never had computers etc, to aid them with the building of such structures either.

That means your glorifying God, right?

Morning in Paris, the city awakes
To the bells of Notre Dame
The fisherman fishes, the bakerman bakes
To the bells of Notre Dame
To the big bells as loud as the thunder
To the little bells soft as a psalm
And some say the soul of the city is
The toll of the bells
The bells of Notre Dame

Sorry to everyone in France for your loss. A few weeks ago we lost are beautiful 2 year old dog to a speeding truck that didn’t see her. A sad but gentle reminder from the heavens above that nothing in this material world lasts forever, no matter how badly we want it otherwise, whether 2 or 850 years old. Puts things in perspective on what matters most. To love and cherish each other and the world around us for this brief and fleeting moment in time. ❤️
1000lifelessons are you literally talking about your dead dog on here
K T you’re obviously a cat person. 😂
This seriously broke my heart. Not because I'm a catholic, nor am I French... but because this was a Staple of Western Architecture and history... I feel so sore thinking of this. :(
Same man.
Same here. I'm an American and not a Christian. But this is one of the great works of human endeavor and magnificent art. A piece of history. This should not have happened.
Totally preventable I agree
Oups monarchy is not French anymore so we burn the furnitures left
I am an American living in Washington. I am so saddened by this horrific event. I cried when I saw the devestation! My heart goes out to the French people, and for all the people who share this tiny planet. I mourn the historic, and shared, loss for all of us!

Don't worry, it was pretty much in the same condition this time 100 years ago and they rebuilt it. They can do the same thing again.
There no coincidences in life! Of course this was a religious attack on an iconic church!! The Cathedral was already rebuild many times but this fire had to start exactly on the Holy Week!?? Come on!! Only dummies will believe this was an accident and was not intentional!! And the Liberal media is silent on what really caused that fire!!
I don't care how much hate I will get in these incessant comments. As a Muslim, it saddens me that such a church is ruined, a church is important as a mosque to a Muslim for they are both a place where people worship the one Lord.
Alhamdulillah. Well said.
I noticed inside....the Cross had survived the destruction.....it's a sign that hope is not lost. They will rebuild and it will last a thousand years.
Well said...but they have some serious things to change.
Only if the people actually get off their weak, useless asses & fight for their own civilization against islamic invaders who have a 1400 year history of this crap.
The leftists have their heads wedged firmly up their asses & are completely useless & even enabling their own conquerors.
The media churns out propaganda while their "leaders" sit on their asses & do absolutely nothing while their citizens are attacked, raped & killed - all to preserve their own comfortable situations while everyone else suffers.
The leftist media & leaders need to be put to the gallows or guillotine at this point.
roger sowers the cross would have survived no matter what. It’s gold, therefore melts at a much higher temperature. Science
NO ONE DIED! that's the important thing, everything else is replaceable! I'm an Iraqi and in the past 200 years, thousands of historical (3000+ yr olds) artefacts have either been stolen by the super powers or destroyed by local idiots (ISIS). After a building burned with a few hours half a billion was raised but when thousands are killed barely anything is raised.

Thats true, nothing has more old n historic values like oriental artefacts. Shit on european or us artefacts. They hav no value, thats not history. The real history ws in orient. But thats gonna be destroyed by smugglers n dealers. Wow wat a super world
Its also called brainstorm wat we learn at school now. But now europe is on fire not the orient. Thats called revenge
Gdkfkgirifi Hfjrjdofofjda artifacts..
Totally understand where you coming from. But let look at this way, the cathedral holds more sway in the psychi of the Europeans. It's a legacy and a testament of the lives that came before. Their sorrow isn't so much of its age, but the lost of continuity and perception of stability from this witness from the past. So the collective shock is realizing the collapse of that symbol of continuity in their culture. Thus why they are indifferent to the collapse of an older and ancient empire artifact when its lost or pillage.
It's a real tragedy that the building that more or less watched over a country for decades has suffered such damage. On the bright side, the structure itself
was mostly intact, thanks to the collective efforts of all those who put out the fires. I hope the reconstruction goes well, and that I may someday
visit Paris to see Notre Dame in it's restored glory.
That's life & that's the history of a lot of houses of worship that go unnoticed, due to a lack of the fame, like Notre Dame has. Their blessed indeed to have a world populous that cares.
I was in Paris, couldn't visit Norte Dame due to limited time, but outside architecture is amazing, beautiful It truly reflects the people amazing creativity and attention to details. Sad day for art and history.
For others it means far more than just "an art piece".
The architecture and beauty of Notre Dame is what inspired and influenced me to become an artist in both stained glass and other mediums. This is a heavy loss for the world, but especially for France. I weep and pray with Paris.
The windows in Notre Dame are truly spectacular. I hope and pray they were able to save some of them!
This is a lesson for future.
Nobody cares about giving money for restoration before disaster.

Valentina Conon indeed
Wars couldn’t destroy it.
Yet some stupid dude in a hard hat can burn it to pieces
That was no accident or incompetence. This was biblical
Joshua Smith Don’t use your religion to justify things that happened. This is not biblical and you have no proof. However, there is proof that a construction worker caused it.
“But you never can run from or hide what you’ve done from the eyes, the very eyes of Notre Dame”. - The Archdeacon from the Hunchback of Notre Dame.
I still cant believe this happened a year ago. After a day or so after it happened most people forgot about it which is just a shame.
@Allison the fox I know, I was on a school trip when it happened, and my whole class were so shocked. I’ve always wanted to go there because of the Disney movie, and now I have to wait for a couple of years to see it.
I can´t understand why that kind of cultural historical treasures like Notre Dame in Paris, France, isn´t protected with modern sprinkler systems and sensitive smoke and fire alarm systems, which would make that kind of massive disastrous fires impossible or at least fast and easy to extinguish before serious large scale structural damages?
Here is a point for people who say this is a waste of money, let’s say we don’t restore it, what will we do with it? Just let it sit and rot away, then have it demolished? No. The Namdaemun gate in Seoul, South Korea, which dates back to the 14th century, was incinerated by some old drunk guy in 2008. By 2013, it was completely restored and reopened. This shows that landmarks make a city, and a country, and that they are worth something.
It's a perfect spot for building a multicultural mosque, let it burn to ground, lmao
The same buildings we have already built in this generation will also be history at some point, and so on. Nothing lasts forever
Lmao
Agreed. Difference though is that took 200 years to build and has way more quality, intricacy, and art into it than the copy paste houses and business buildings being built today.
Toasty Potate yeah I get what you’re saying,
Very true.
I never imagined it to become history
Never been to France, never been to Europe. Never left the U.S., but this sure makes me sad. I've only seen it in pictures, but it was magnificent. I hope it gets rebuilt.
It's far older than the US, you can't simply rebuild it like a burnt out Baltimore Starbucks.
It's a good thing It can't be. It's a symbol of superstition. And like thhat superstition it will be burnt down. Hopefully France will build over a temple of reason.
@Berzerk Llama Just google "Dresdner Frauenkirche" we Germans are pretty good in rebuilding such old cathedrals. I'm wondering why..

Very sad to see 850 years of history and culture reduced to ruins in just over a few hours. However it will be rebuilt to its former glory and become a symbol of the human capacity for cultural recovery and renewal.
Frances culture was already being slowly destroyed before this. No go zones will take over the country.
i hope they can rebuild it
Just a solid reminder to have excessive fire extinguisher and emergency water sprinklers when you have a place like this
The workers needed 200 years to build Notre Dame, the fire needs 200 minutes to destroy nearly all...
More like 800 years bro

UNBELIEVABLE! This is not just a loss for Parisians; this is a loss for all of Christianity just days away from Easter as well as a loss for Western civilization itself.
Loss for humanity
I hope and pray that people especially Christians will see that God is greater than a structure and cannot be housed in a building shaped with hands and they can have a rich celebration of Jesus's resurrection without a building.
@@JetADR To not be angry at this would be quite simply ridiculous. If anyone is caught culpable for this, then they need to be dealt with.
@@JetADR Of course Christians see that, Ari, but that does not negate the impact of losing such an historically and architecturally significant structure. It would be like losing the Statue of Liberty in New York City or the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. This is a huge loss. I hope you are capable of comprehending that because I have no time for dull religious zealots that are incapable of understanding that the loss of a structure that has stood for 800 years cannot be measured.
@@TorontoJon Believe me I appreciate art, history, and the icons and legacy of a society. My heart is breaking because of the loss of a wonderful work of art and House of God. My hope and prayer in the midst of the mourning they will find a closeness to God & Jesus's death, Burial, and Resurrection in the midst of this tragedy. Jesus had to die in order to give new life. Maybe there will be new life brought out of this 'death'

850 years old, and it took 200 years to make. Which makes it 1,050 years old.
I never thought about that...Crazy
I think the 200 years of building was included in the 850. First stone was laid in the 1160s. But yes, a long time. With hand tools! Wow. so sad.
I'm so depressed to see this . The sight of burning history makes my heart bleed . I hope much damage has not been done . I've been wanting to visit France since I was 12

To watch it burn was distressing a medieval masterpiece
I hope it rises from the ashes like a gallic Phoenix

I had the honour and pleasure of walking into Note Dame Cathedral it took my breath away and I spent the next 30 minutes crying and experiencing the power of our Heavenly Father there in this most beautiful yet quiet place. I cried watching it burn yesterday and prayed to God to help all those fighting this fire., and to bring peace to the French people in their hour of need. My hats off to all those brave and wonderful Firemen who risked so much to bring it under control. Also, bless those that were able to save the relics. France will rebuild and it will just as beautiful.

Tammy Vaughan You gonna cry over the death of a building that you don’t even own.
@@chriszone50 what does owning it have to do with anything? It was loved by the people, not just in Paris but in other parts. I guess you can not appreciate the history, the labor that went into building it, or appreciate the craftsmen with the vision and talent to build it. Why do you take the time to comment on what I cry about? By the way did not cry, I can feel empathy for others without tears. So Life upgrade, you are a waste of my time.
Exploring such an amazing building in Assassin's Creed Unity was one of my favorite things to do in videogames, I was always so obsessed with learning French history. Sometimes I go back and replay that game just to see Notre Dame again, and to see the real thing attacked by engulfing flames just breaks my heart, the fact that such a timeless treasure for the entire world, most of all Paris, can go down that fast... it's surreal. My prayers go out to Paris.

@@silver4831 true but still...
CO2 fire extinguishers aren't good enough, high pressure hoses must be used and used first in this case. If only this hadn't begun in the roof. Damn stupid renovation caused this.
A glass roof will be amazing, but nothing can replace the history - the love - the awe of the centuries and the ghosts of those amazing people who imagined and built it.
Lets face it, it will be rebuild. The vault ceiling seems mostly OK. It's sad, but as long as the stonework is intact, the roof will be rebuild.
Two other great cathedrals, Reims and Chartres, had their roof construction destroyed in fires. Both had them replaced in 2 decades.
@@RonjaStarCollector There is a vaulted ceiling under the roof, no light would come through. Still, I hope they just rebuild it. Maybe without the spire (the spire was a 19th century addition). It also seems that the collapsing spire was the only part of the roof collapse that actually took the vaulted ceiling down with it.
Most cathedrals and churches that have had there roof burned, had the great forest of wood framing replaced with just a simple steel or cast iron construction (this is the case for both Reims and Chartres)
It would be nice if this cathedral could keep such a nice (though hidden to most visitors) part of the architecture.
So yeah, we have the plans, I hope they rebuild it the same.
A heart-breaking day for France, and the entire world. Absolutely devastating. So surreal, to see history in such a way.
Best renovations ever...
lol
The first time that people actually grieved for the loss of no one except a building.
This is why you never go with the low bidder on any construction project.
Thank you for comming up with a different reason then, "it was the work of the devil" or it was caused by "illegal muslim immigrants" And yes judging from where the fire departement said it started you probally are right
That's crazy cause history is just crumbling before their eyes.

If it's ever restored or rebuilt it won't be 800 years old and its authenticity would be lost.
The building has changed a lot throughout the years, there is a panel inside the cathedral with all the changes and restorations made to it. This is will be another chapter in its history, if it can be restored it will be restored.
My thought same wth ppl in Paris. We lost that and we pray everything will be fine
Why is this ONLY being talked about as a building?!?!?!?! This is a place of worship! My prayers for all those Catholics who are left without their place of worship, especially during Holy Week

Let’s just hope this is a small part of the landmarks legacy and the building will make full recovery🙏
Realizing that it’ll go down in history ...
I visited and went through to see it in 1984. Hope the blueprints, artisans and materials are available to rebuild it. (Just as all was cleaned up after WW2 bomber squadron damage).
