One of the greatest and oldest intact monuments/artworks in the world has been lost forever. I envy those who got to see it.

Hello; Posting to follow the thread for now. I do not so far have an emotional reaction to the loss of the building. TV says it was started in the 1100's and took two centuries to complete. I have never been to Europe so have not seen it. I have heard about it during my life.

I'm not catholic, so that doen't bother me. Historically it bothers me some. Never been there so never appreciated it personally.

Hello; Same story here. Real sad for some folks but not so much for others. Not heard of any lives lost so far and that is good if true. Kinda hope it was accidental as other reasons will make things worse in an already tense world.
