After flames engulfed France's Notre-Dame cathedral in 2019, Britain's future King Charles III sat down to write to President Emmanuel Macron, describing his heartbreak and offering his help and advice on the restoration.
This week, more than four years on, the monarch will tour France on a royal visit and inspect the site of the inferno that stirred memories of the blaze that swept through his own family's home of Windsor Castle in 1992.
Charles and his wife Queen Camilla are scheduled to visit Paris before heading southwest to the vineyards of Bordeaux. The former French royal palace will be back in action on Wednesday night during a state banquet in its famed 17th century gallery, built by the "Sun King" to project the power and majesty of the French monarchy.
"The king is always very interested in the president's analysis of major international issues," an Elysee official told Reuters.
