According to CNN, French Minister of Culture Franck Riester today, April 16, told the press that most of the precious heritage items inside Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris have been brought to a safe place, undamaged by the virus.

Specifically, two of the antiquities considered the most valuable treasures of Notre Dame Cathedral, including the Crown of Thorns and the Robe of Saint Louis, have both been safely moved to Paris City Hall.

Meanwhile, other antiquities were taken to the Louve art museum in Paris.

“Large works of art may appear unaffected by fire at first glance, but there will be some damage due to smoke.

Another optimistic piece of information also announced to the press by Minister Riester was that the stained windows on the north and south sides of the church `did not appear to be much affected` by the fire.

In addition, the main bell of the church named Emanuelle is still safe in the south tower.

The giant pipe organ inside the church is preserved.

According to Guaridan, the organ in the church was also preserved.

The church’s ancient statues were moved to a safe place before the fire broke out.

Previously, AP sources said that ancient statues including 12 statues of apostles and 4 statues of missionaries that had been on the roof of the church for more than a century had been taken down to serve restoration work.

Currently, French officials continue to move valuable objects inside Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris to prevent the risk of another fire breaking out at any time.
