The Cathedral’s bell towers were the last part of the site to reopen to the public following extensive renovations after the 2019 fire that devastated large parts of the building. French President Emmanuel Macron inaugurated the bell towers ahead of the European Heritage Days, when the cathedral will be fully accessible once again. FRANCE 24’s Aurore Cloé Dupuis visited to get a preview of one of the best views in Paris. We also explore other architectural gems opening their doors this weekend, including a chocolate workshop led by one of France’s finest chefs.
