➡️ As reported by local media, people in the streets of Rouen below watched in horror as 40 fire engines rushed to the site and emergency workers set up a cordon around the cathedral, a jewel of French medieval Gothic architecture made famous by the paintings of impressionist Claude Monet in the 19th century.

➡️ Eye-witness Patrick Waeselynck told BFM television he was sitting at the terrace of a nearby cafe when he heard people shouting "fire".

"I turn around and I see the cathedral spire, the tarpaulin which was protecting the restoration work, which was burning, big flames, black smoke," he said.

"The first thing we thought was what happened in Paris, it was a shock of course. But the police arrived, they set up a security perimeter, the firefighters arrived."

Don't get discouraged. You, and our ancestors, chose faith and freedom over comfort and money. Stand strong, and consider the Orania solution.

When Rollant sees those misbegotten men,
Who are more black than ink is on the pen

With no part white, only their teeth except,
Then says that count: "I know now very well

That here to die we're bound, as I can tell.
Strike on, the Franks! For so I recommend."

Says Oliver: "Who holds back, is condemned!"
Upon those words, the Franks to strike again.
