Notre‑Dame became a civic sentinel during the world wars. Sandbags, guard posts, and protocols shielded stone from shock and shrapnel.
🪖 Protective Measures
- Sandbagging: Façades and windows buffered against blasts.
- Monitoring: Patrol logs kept in sacristy records.
- Repair cycles: Chips and cracks cataloged by masons.
🗓️ Events & Presence
- WWI: Precautions for artillery and air raids.
- WWII: Occupation era vigil and symbolic services.
The cathedral’s steady presence helped anchor civic morale.
[^memory]: Wartime diaries note the cathedral as a point of orientation and hope.
