Bu içerik, Hz. İsa’nın çarmıha gerilirken taktığı söylenen eski bir kutsal eşyanın, Notre-Dame Katedrali’ne geri dönüşünü ve katedralde gerçekleştirilen töreni anlatmaktadır. Taç, 1239 yılında Fransa Kralı IX. Louis tarafından 135.000 livre karşılığında satın alınmış ve 1806 yılında Notre-Dame hazinesine taşınmıştır. 2019 yılında çıkan yangında katedraldeki diğer tarihi eserlerle birlikte kurtarılmıştır. Louvre Müzesi’nde bir süre korunan taç, katedralin kapsamlı restorasyonu sırasında yeni bir kutsal emanet sandığına yerleştirilmiştir. Taç, 10 Ocak’tan itibaren halka açık bir şekilde sergilenecek ve katedral, 8 Aralık’ta 700 milyon avro (582 milyon pound) maliyetle gerçekleştirilen geniş kapsamlı restorasyon çalışmalarının ardından yeniden ziyarete açılmıştır. Açılış töreni dünya liderlerinin katılımıyla gerçekleşmiş ve Fransa Cumhurbaşkanı Emmanuel Macron, restorasyon hakkında “Bu kırılganlık, tevazu ve irade dersini değerlendirmeliyiz.” şeklinde konuşmuştur.

An ancient relic said to have been worn by Jesus Christ at his crucifixion has returned to the Notre-Dame Cathedral, five years after it was saved from a fire that devastated the church.
The Crown of Thorns – comprised of a circle of rushes encased in a crystal and gold tube – was brought back to the cathedral in a ceremony overseen by the Archbishop of Paris, Laurent Ulrich.
The crown was acquired by King Louis IX of France in Constantinople in 1239 for 135,000 livres – nearly half France’s annual expenditure at the time.
Initially kept at the Sainte-Chapelle, it was moved to Notre-Dame’s treasury in 1806 where it remained until a fire ripped through the 850-year-old building in 2019.
Firefighters and police officers formed a human chain to rescue the relic and other historic artefacts in the cathedral.
The fire destroyed the cathedral’s wooden interiors and its spire.
The crown, which was kept at the Louvre Museum at one point while the famed cathedral underwent extensive renovation, has been placed in a newly built reliquary to replace the one from 1806.
The ceremony marking its return was led by a procession attended by members of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre – a Catholic order of knighthood.
The Crown of Thorns will be displayed for the public from 10 January, French media reports.
The cathedral reopened its doors to the public on 8 December, after extensive restoration works which cost a reported €700m (£582m) and involved an estimated 2,000 masons, carpenters, restorers, roofers, foundry-workers, art experts, sculptors and engineers.
Its reopening ceremony was attended by world leaders. In a speech at the event, French President Emmanuel Macron said of the restoration: “We must treasure this lesson of fragility, humility and will.”
