The new works, financed by the French government, will replace six of the seven stained glass windows installed on the south side of the cathedral's nave during the restoration led by Eugène Viollet-le-Duc in 1864. The old stained glass windows, which were not damaged by the fire, undergo an asbestos decontamination process before restoration. Afterwards, they will be exposed to the public. Four will be located at Pierrefonds Castle, in northern France, and two will be sent to the City of Architecture and Heritage, in Paris. The replacement of 19th century pieces provoked criticism from experts and defenders of historical heritage. They question the need for the change and the cost of the project.
