Statement from White House's @PressSec on Notre Dame. The part about seeking solace - on any given day, at any hour, there were always people in there praying, or reflecting. Paris doesn't lack for churches, but it felt different in Notre Dame de Paris. https://t.co/LS7CJhRajH

Done. I could never bring myself to dissuade anyone from giving to help rebuild Notre Dame - especially out of a personal emotional connection. But Yashar is right, that reconstruction effort will be well funded. These may not. https://t.co/RbCqDIHuUj

@JonMLCoen @matthewamiller And I have a whole weird family reason for disliking it. But Saint Severin is, I think, where my parents got married. Family lore has it that it was one of the only Catholic churches that would marry a Catholic and a Protestant in '65.

As @JonMLCoen points out, you can also go to Reims to see that incredible cathedral, which had to be rebuilt. And as I mentioned earlier, don't miss the Sainte Chapelle in Paris.

If you happen to be in Paris, and had planned to visit Notre Dame, one alternative: Chartres. It's only about an hour by train from Gare Montparnasse. And if you go, you MUST try to get a tour from Malcolm Miller. https://t.co/2lwwJ7qn6q
