French President Emmanuel Macron’s plan to introduce contemporary stained-glass designs in the restored Notre Dame Cathedral has sparked controversy and opposition from various quarters.
The proposed redesign involves replacing the large windows of six side-chapels in the south aisle of Notre Dame’s nave with modern stained-glass in yellow, pink, and green hues. Macron's aides suggest that the new designs would serve as a reminder of the 2019 fire that devastated the historic cathedral.
