It is on track to reopen on December 8, and with less than six months to go, fire-blackened rubble has given way to gleaming stone.
This handout photograph taken and released on June 25, 2024 by Jeancharlesdecastelbajac+ shows the drawing of the future liturgical vestments of the archbishop of Notre-Dame designed by 74-year-old French fashion designer Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, who was inspired by the huge golden cross of the Notre-Dame choir, which was spared from the flames, on June 26, 2024.
Archbishop of Paris Laurent Ulrich said he wanted to “welcome the whole world” as he revealed details of the new interior designs.Priests, archbishops, bishops and deacons will wear vestments created by aristocratic French designer Jean-Charles de Castelbajac — known to his celebrity pals as “JC/DC” — the man who came up with Madonna’s famous coat made of teddy bears.
New massive bronze furniture — highly stylised and bringing to mind something from “Game of Thrones” — is being produced in southern France and should be installed in November, including a new baptismal font, altar and tabernacle.The painted decorations of the chapels, seen in part by AFP, have regained their vibrant colours and should match seven new tapestries and six new stained glass windows to be installed after the reopening.
