🔥💔#NotreDame cathedral in the heart of #Paris on the Île de la Cité appears fully engulfed in flames. Fire broke out 7am, police say, perhaps from renovation work. Height of French Catholicism & gothic architecture, around for 856 yrs. Home of fabled Hunchback. Ahead of Easter.
Historic #NotreDame spire has collapsed and the cathedral’s back roof is engulfed in flames. Earlier report said fire began at 7am, tho likely 7pm. It’s 8:30pm in Paris. Reporters say it appears out of control, violent and moving quickly toward the iconic gothic facade. Tragic.💔

Beautiful THREAD by @Kyruer on the architectural artistry and cultural significance of iconic #NotreDame of Paris Cathedral. For fire to ravage such a monument of history is almost unimaginable. Thankfully, all was not lost.
