The bell installed at the Stade de France during the athletics events of the Paris 2024 Games, where it was rung by the gold medalists at the end of their event, will have a more traditional destiny. It is to join the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris on Thursday, November 7, where it will be heard every day, several times a day, " by thousands of faithful and visitors from all over the world." A press release published on Tuesday, November 5 explains that " the bell offered by the Organizing Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games to the cathedral is a strong symbol and a material legacy of this universal, historic and unifying event which marked the year 2024." It said that its installation, along with two other bells, will take place one month before the cathedral reopens. Tony Estanguet, the president of the Paris 2024 COJO, is expected to attend the ceremony on Thursday.
