Sheer Luck

Despite the damage, Notre Dame was spared from the worst case scenario. Luckily, many of the artifacts and artworks that normally would have been there were located elsewhere. In 2018, general repair work and restoration was being done, and many of these important objects were being stored away in order to be kept safe. What luck!

These objects were stored in the sacristy, a nearby building that luckily was not touched by the fire. The artifacts that were located in the burning building were largely saved by the rescue workers. However, there were some casualties that sadly could not be saved.
