French President Emanuel Macron has climbed the steps to the belfry of Notre Dame to officially reopen the north and south towers of the cathedral.
The Paris landmark kept going during two world wars, but it took a fire in peacetime - in April this year - to close it down.
Only about 30 people - mainly priests and church employees - were admitted inside with hardhats.
Weeks after Paris' iconic landmark went up in flames, ABC News' cameras captured the damage -- and the beautiful features that remain.
Notre Dame Cathedral will move Easter Sunday service for the first time in nine centuries after Monday's massive fire.
An official, who spoke anonymously about the ongoing investigation, said investigators still don't have the green light to work in the cathedral.
