Notre Dame will reopen its doors in one month, with ceremonies and celebrations planned to begin Dec. 7.
The landmark also boasts three new bells, one of which rang at the Stade de France at the 2024 Paris Olympics and is inscribed with "Paris 2024."
In total, there are 21 bells at Notre Dame, each of which is named for an important figure in the church.
