I head this morning that some of the artwork was saved, and the 8000-pipe organ, although damaged, is salvageable.

Even a smaller pipe organ is expensive.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by Bill the Cat View PostJust saw the pics the media is releasing from the inside. If the main sanctuary was the only affected area, then most of the art and tapestries were not in the affected area. There was SOME in there, like the painting of Joan of Arc and a relic purported to belong to her that were just to the right of the area where the rubble was pictured, and some marble statuary and displays of the primary architect of the second expansion. But the real priceless stuff was back off to the right in the expansion areas.
One report I heard says the massive stained glass windows appears to have survived intact which would be a miracle.
OK, not necessarily a "miracle" miracle but would still be extraordinary.

It seems that some elements of ISIS are implying that they're responsible for the fire and are promising that more attacks are coming.
