December 8, 2024 will mark the reopening of the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris. Magnum photographer Patrick Zachmann was one of the first on the scene to document the fire in 2019 that shockingly devastated the historic building.

Zachmann has had privileged access to the construction site from the outset, enabling a unique documentation of this momentous undertaking from start to finish. Magnum have edited key moments of the ongoing building work, while still shooting the final steps set to meet the deadline for the announced opening.

Photo editors can view the image set via their Magnum login.
