The Virgin Mary statue is displayed during a public candle procession, presided over by Paris Archbishop Laurent Ulrich, for its return to Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, on Nov. 15.A procession of hundreds of people holding candles walked through the streets of Paris to bring a famed statue of the Virgin Mary and child back to Notre-Dame Cathedral on Friday, five years after it was moved to a nearby church after a devastating fire.
“The Virgin stands, stands, although she is filled with pain. We have just accompanied her walk, her return, by reciting the rosary and the joyful mysteries. We remain joyful about everything that happened after this fire. We remain joyful about everything that has been experienced around this cathedral for five years,” Ulrich said.Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Paris landmark built over nearly 200 years starting in the middle of the 12th century, is due to reopen on Dec.
The façade of the building, which hulks over the Ile de la Cite island in the middle of the Seine river, held, but the damage has required years of work to stabilize and restore the edifice. About 500 workers have been racing to do so.The official leading the project said in April that the project had cost 550 million euros , funded in part by massive donations, including by luxury sector billionaires Francois Henri Pinault and the Arnault family.
