Notre Dame de Paris' Never Ending Run of Bad Luck

Notre Dame de Paris is a staple in art history both as a gothic architecture masterpiece and a background in countless works of art. This gorgeous structure has a tendency to steal the show in whatever medium it is in though. Finished in 182 years, Notre Dame de Paris proves if something is worth doing, it is worth doing right.
Notre Dame has a long history of lootings, survived many wars and riots while also being the place where a lot of historical events took place including the coronation of Napoleon Bonaparte in 1804. This makes the cathedral one of the most important points in the city of Paris, both culturally and historically. 
To add to the cathedral’s misfortune, the 2019 fire caused Notre Dame de Paris’ spire to collapse. Repair efforts are already in place and the cathedral is expected to be opened for visits in the spring of 2024. Victor Hugo was right when he realized there is something special about this place, because before the fire it drew 12 million people annually and no doubt will continue to do so when the reconstruction is finished.
