Firefighters are battling a massive blaze which broke out at the world-famous Notre Dame cathedral in Paris this evening.

Pictures posted on social media showed enormous plumes of smoke billowing into the city's skyline and flames engulfing large sections of the historic building.

According to French newspaper Le Monde, the fire broke out in the attic of the monument before spreading across the roof.

A spokesperson for the cathedral said the blaze was first reported at 5.50pm (GMT) and the building was evacuated soon after.

Officials in Paris said the fire could be linked to restoration works as the peak of the church is currently undergoing a 6 million-euro ($6.8 million) renovation project.

Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo says firefighters are trying to contain a 'terrible fire' at the city's Notre Cathedral.

Hidalgo urged residents of the French capital to stay away from the security perimeter around the Gothic-style church. The mayor says city officials are in touch with Roman Catholic diocese in Paris.

The cathedral is one the finest example of French Gothic architecture in Europe, and one of the most visited buildings in the world.

Notre Dame - which means 'Our Lady' - was build in 1160 and completed by 1260, and has been modified on a number of occasions throughout the century.

It is the cathedral of the Archdiocese of Paris, and is visited by some 12million people every year.

France will open the redesign of Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral’s historic spire to international architects

Why keep anything French?

Mobile Home burns down March 1st, by March 7th, a week later, Authorities are STILL investigating if it is arson, though they suspect the occupant of starting it.

But one of the largest Medieval Buildings and a massive historical monument with multistory spires? Even before they begin interviewing the workers, they've all but ruled out arson. And somehow know of a computer bug in the fire alarm system. During a wave of Church attacks, including others on historical, ancient churches.

They know if it did turn out to even look like it could have been a Muslim this could be the type of thing that breaks the straw. It could very well turn into "The shot heard round the world" moment.

No way, French are way too frightened to offend Muslims.

They will say, “thank you sir, may I have another”

Nope is has more to do with exactly what Lindsey Graham said in his rebuke against them in the conclusion of the Kavanaugh hearings.

They are so drunk on power they will do anything to hang on to it. They would unleash Lions onto the public so they can support Animal Rights when one gets killed after it mauled hundreds. Just anything to put the shit on people, tear them down while seemingly building themselves up. They will do it. Nothing is beneath them at this point. The wildest scenario you can dream up they would pull that. So keep it to yourself. I've seen it, I've posed several things about the Liberals being more facetious than anything else. Only to find they actually pulled and used what ever hypothetical crap I said.

Sure they can, if they used to have a factory job.

If they've been nothing but a baby momma, crackhead, or certainly if they're born outside the USA and poor, THEN they can never do anything wrong.

I think, someone on this site mentioned, women is poor in identifying the danger posed to the group. Imagine if this 50% voters not prioritizing the risk, no politician cares the issue. Islam exploit this social bug.
Europe, US and other places people are getting less religious but not aware of the danger of the Islam which occupies the vacuum like a parasite. Islam not just against Christianity but any modernity. People should know how to get this parasite out before it makes a hell whole like every where or expect dark days ahead to the humanity.

"Dupuy, who was involved in work to Notre-Dame in 2013, said safety regulations were very strict at the centuries-old site, with a focus on fire prevention. All extension chords had to be unplugged every night and smoking was not allowed anywhere. "

"TWO ALARMS
The scaffolders started leaving work at 5:20 p.m. on Monday evening and by 5:50 p.m. - half an hour before the first alarm sounded - all were gone, Eskenazi said.
“The procedure says that at the end of the day, electricity on the site is turned off. So we turn off the lifts and the scaffolding’s lights, and we hand over the keys to the sacristy’s concierge,” he said.
“That’s exactly what the workers did. They followed the procedure, and it was of course duly noted in the registers at the sacristy.”
[...]
"If indeed the fire was not arson, an electrical source would almost certainly be to blame, one police source said. "

Film pictures of how an unknown person moves on top of the Notre Dame cathedral before the big fire starts has attracted much attention in recent days. The video clip shows how the person lights up something similar to a fire. The French news agency AFP confirms that the video is genuine.

The fire against the historic cathedral Notre Dame in Paris came just a few days before the Easter celebration was to begin. During the week, several channels on YouTube and accounts on Twitter have published material from a webcam located on the Montparnass Tower about 2.3 kilometers from the cathedral. The webcam is provided by the company ViewSurf and film clips once an hour. ...

Again, from nearby public webcam on 4/15/19 there is a dark figure walking on the rooftop before the fire – NO SAFETY VEST – and no other workers present. This person creates TWO flashes of light or sparks. Pay attention. Better video resolution. #NotreDameFire pic.twitter.com/j3m9Px1hlc

Exactly what happened with St. Sulpice fire in France: Government said it was accident, turned out to be arson, Media extensively covered "Accident", barely acknowledged when it was ruled arson.

The restoration of Notre Dame was a quiet victory that will have massive implication. I remember seeing footage of the burning in 2019, the open wound of the transept was like gazing into the Chernobyl of the West, into the mouth of Hell itself.

Then architects, laborers, and artisans from all over France (and some from the United States) came together to rebuild. Outlandish plans for modernist redesigns were rejected. Each piece of rubble was lovingly sorted, cleaned and reassembled. They worked with wood, and stone, and gilt and paint. And after five years the cathedral stood whole again. A triumph.

Was Notre Dame dragged through the mud, or in this case the ashes, to see what retains its luster? Indeed she was, and she was rebuilt. She would be rebuilt a thousand times. Each time the faithful go there to pray, as in the example of this wedding here, she is rebuilt in the hearts of those who love her and France.


Thank God that the rebuilders rejected satanist modernism.

Who knows how they rebuilt it. They may have hidden Baphomet alcoves. The floor is already Masonic checkerboard. You'd have to look over everything in detail for particular sigils and symbols. It doesn't look like they have the standard traditional 'kneeling pews' that Catholic churches routinely have.
