French law enforcement officials opened an arson investigation on Saturday after the Cathedral of Saint Pierre and Saint Paul in Nantes went up in flames, causing significant damage before fire officials were able to put it out.
The fire “blew out stained glass windows and destroyed the grand organ in the 15th-century building,” France 24 reported. “Dozens of firefighters brought the fire under control after several hours. Smoke was still coming out of the Gothic structure after massive flames earlier engulfed the inside.”
