The firefighters who saved the historic Notre Dame cathedral from collapse as it burst into flames will be honored Thursday during a daylong tribute across France.
French President Emmanuel Macron will host the first responders for a special gathering at the presidential palace to thank each of them, his office said. Top government ministers will also be present.
Then, Paris City Hall will hold a ceremony in honor of the smoke eaters, with a Bach violin concert, two giant banners strung from the massive building and readings from “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” by Victor Hugo.
