In terms of material culture, the loss of Notre Dame is the biggest hit the West has taken in my lifetime. I can think of nothing destroyed in World War II that compares with it. Taking the long view, today’s loss ranks with the burning of the Library of Alexandria.
Glad that someone gets it. Construction of the cathedral was started 47 years after the founding of the Knights Templar Order. Speaking of the Library at Alexandria, guess who destroyed its contents.

I’ve always read that historians aren’t sure who destroyed it. Muslims are one theory.
If I recall, the Muslim theory actually originates from a Muslim, which is interesting.
