What was lost and what survived devastating Notre Dame fire

_{David K. Li}

Some of the most prized, centuries-old relics of France and Christianity survived the devastating Notre Dame Cathedral fire that almost wiped out the cherished Paris landmark.

According to Culture Minister Frank Riester the “most precious treasures” were largely spared. Many of the works will be stored at Paris' City Hall and the Louvre, where they will be examined, treated for damage and protected.

Monday's fire almost destroyed the entire cathedral, wich has stood in Paris and survived nearly 900 years of tumultuous French history.

So far, authorities have said blaze appears to be an accident, possibly connected to a renovation project carried out by five companies.

The fire was finally extinguished after nine hours of work.
