In this episode, Gaelle focuses on what happened to an iconic French building: the cathedral Notre Dame of Paris. In 2019 a terrible fire destroyed its roof and spire and a mad bet was then taken: the cathedral would rise again in all its glory in 5 years. So learn about this incredible reconstruction work that was made possible thanks to the generosity of people worldwide, the incredible work of craftsmen and women and a very strong headed French president.
