PARIS (OSV News) — Archbishop Laurent Ulrich found himself taking over the Archdiocese of Paris in the spotlight — three years after the Notre Dame fire, as the world watched the cathedral being rebuilt, and waiting for the work to be completed.
“When I was welcomed as archbishop of Paris, Notre Dame was a cathedral of scaffolding,” Archbishop Ulrich told OSV News in a written interview. “Now, it is changing day by day. The work is progressing, inside and out, and we are all looking forward to the joy of the reopening! It is a great honor and joy to be able to witness this extraordinary rebirth.”
Upon his appointment in April 2022, Notre Dame instantly became a priority of the new archbishop, as he became the go-to personality in the church for state institutions responsible for rebuilding the cathedral. His main task was to work, alongside the cathedral’s rector, on reestablishing the liturgical and pastoral life of Notre Dame, which will welcome visitors again in December.
