| The spire of the iconic Paris Notre Dame Cathedral (Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris) has collapsed as a result of a major fire that engulfed the roof of the landmark tourist attraction an hour earlier. | |
| The cause of the fire is still unknown. The top of the Gothic architecture jewel was under renovation with scaffolding covering some parts of the spire. | The cause of the fire is still unknown.

| The spire itself, made of wood and covered with lead, has long been in a bad shape as the elements of the construction dating back to the mid-nineteenth century have been damaged by weather, pollution and time. | The spire itself, made of wood and covered with lead, has long been in a bad shape as the elements of the construction dating back to the mid-nineteenth century have been damaged by weather, pollution and time. |
