.- Welsh writer Ken Follett will donate the royalties from his book Notre-Dame , published after the Paris cathedral was ravaged by fire in 2019, to help restore another Gothic cathedral in Brittany, it was announced Monday.
Follett wrote the short e-book celebrating the history of Notre Dame to raise money for its restoration following the devastating fire in April 2019.
But France s Heritage Foundation said they had decided together to use the money around 150,000 euros ($180,000) for another project restoring the Saint-Samson cathedral in Dol-de-Bretagne since the Paris restoration is not short of funds.
