Abstract

The cases of the fires of Notre-Dame in Paris and St Peter and St Paul in Nantes present the effects of the gradual neglect of monument conservation and their impact on a decrease in safety. The causes and consequences of the fires were described. Differences in the methods of technical protection and reconstruction after a fire have been specified. It was reported that in the Cathedral in Nantes, the wooden truss was replaced with a concrete one, whereas in Notre-Dame the original truss will be recreated. The need to select fire protection and reconstruction methods on a case-bycase basis and use comprehensive fire-resistance systems was indicated.
