Notre Dame relics

one of the stories coming out of the Notre Dame fire is the story of the priest, a chaplain for the Paris Fire brigade,  who rescued the Blessed Sacrament and the relics inside the church.....

UKGuardian article on the priest's background.

Fournier previously spent seven years with the French armed forces, including a tour in Afghanistan. His bravery was noted after the 2015 Bataclan (terror) attack, when he tended to the injured and prayed over the dead.

and the article goes on to list the historical and religious relics inside the cathedral that were saved.

I am always sceptical about relics, but here is a discussion of the crown of thorns via National Geographic.
