First look at Notre Dame Cathedral's restored interior five years after devastating fire

Images and videos reveal the restored interior of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris five years after a massive fire caused extensive damage, including a collapsed roof.

Outside, the 12th-century monument is still a construction site, with scaffolding and cranes, but inside, the restoration – which included the removal of years of accumulated dirt – has revealed the cathedral’s bright colors once again.  Greg Norman is a reporter at Fox News Digital.

"We are very eager to welcome the whole world under the roof of our cathedral," Paris Archbishop Laurent Ulrich said on its website, according to Reuters. "On the night of April 15, [2019], hundreds of thousands of people committed themselves to what then seemed an impossible bet: to restore the cathedral and give it back its splendor within the unprecedented deadline of five years."
