Norte-dame, measured +
@zetasyanthis French officials reporting all artwork, relics, and the structure of the cathedral itself have been saved. So there’s that at least.

@zetasyanthis The artwork is offsite because they were in the process of renovating. The interior that was present on-site is gone, as is much of the wood roof, but the stone structure appears to have held.

@Goldkin It's actually better than we'd even hoped. Only a small part of the vaulted stone collapsed. Interior is almost untouched. https://twitter.com/CathedraleNotre/status/1117920118686851072

@Goldkin Then holy cow did they get lucky. Still probably lost all the wooden sculpture work, but the roof can be rebuilt.
