The Cathedral of the Parisian Mother of God, which suffered from the fire, was almost completely saved from the risk of destruction, said Frank Rester Minister of Culture.
“Notre Dame is currently almost saved from destruction ... There was a vault. There are several more unstable places in it, and therefore the team of the Ministry of Culture, together with enterprises, work to remove construction garbage, which is still on the vault, and gradually cover it with tarpaulin. When this is done, it will be possible to say that the Notre Dame is saved, ” RIA Novosti quotes the minister.
Earlier, the rector of the cathedral Patrick Show said that the cathedral can close its doors for visitors for five to six years, since "part of the cathedral was very damaged." The largest fire in history in the Cathedral of the Paris Mother of God occurred on the evening of April 15. The flame covered the supporting structure, and as a result of the fire, the spire of the cathedral collapsed.
