巴黎圣母院修复后重新开放：多国领导人出席仪式
位于法国巴黎的巴黎圣母院（Notre-Dame de Paris）12月7日晚举行重新开放仪式。这座哥特式大教堂在2019年4月15日的大火中屋顶与尖塔被毁，经过五年多修复后重新向世界打开大门。
仪式上，巴黎总主教 Laurent Ulrich 用一根由火灾烧过的横梁制成的牧杖三敲大教堂大门，大门随之开启，教堂钟声再次响起。约1,500名嘉宾出席，包括约40位国家元首和政府领导人；美国候任总统特朗普（Donald Trump）、美国第一夫人 Jill Biden、乌克兰总统泽连斯基（Volodymyr Zelenskyy）与英国威尔士亲王威廉（Prince William）均在现场，170位主教参加仪式。
法国总统马克龙（Emmanuel Macron）在仪式上说，他代表法国人民向所有拯救、帮助与重建这座大教堂的人表达感激，并称法国人共同分享这份喜悦与自豪。仪式后的音乐会由 Gustavo Dudamel 指挥法国广播爱乐乐团演出，华人音乐家郎朗与马友友等亦登台献演。
教宗方济各（Pope Francis）在致巴黎总主教的信中写道，五年前那场大火曾让这座建筑面临消失的危险，如今悲伤与哀悼已让位于喜悦、庆典与赞美；他称大教堂的重生是法国教会复兴的预示性标记。12月8日上午，大教堂举行了新主祭台的祝圣弥撒。（来源：梵蒂冈圣座新闻室）
Notre Dame Cathedral Reopens After Restoration With World Leaders in Attendance
Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, France, was formally reopened at a ceremony on the evening of December 7, more than five years after the fire of April 15, 2019 destroyed its roof and spire. Following the restoration, the Gothic cathedral opened its doors to the world again.
Paris archbishop Laurent Ulrich struck the cathedral's doors three times with a pastoral staff made from one of the roof beams burned in the fire, the doors opened, and the cathedral's bells rang again. About 1,500 guests attended, including some 40 heads of state and government. U.S. president-elect Donald Trump, U.S. first lady Jill Biden, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Britain's Prince William were among those present, along with 170 bishops.
French president Emmanuel Macron told the ceremony that he stood before the gathering to express the gratitude of the French nation to all those who had saved, helped and rebuilt the cathedral, and said France could together share joy and pride. In the concert that followed, Gustavo Dudamel conducted the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France, with performers including pianists Lang Lang and cellist Yo-Yo Ma.
In a message to the Archbishop of Paris, Pope Francis wrote that the terrible fire five years earlier had risked the disappearance of a masterpiece of Christian faith and architecture, and that today sadness and mourning had given way to joy, celebration and praise; he called the cathedral's rebirth a prophetic sign of the renewal of the Church in France. On the morning of December 8, the cathedral celebrated a Mass consecrating its new main altar. (Source: Holy See Press Office)
