The Church of the Immaculate Conception in St Omer, Pas-de-Calais, France, was partially destroyed by fire on 2 September.
The fire broke out in the sacristy at 4am and was brought under control at around 7.30am on Monday morning, with the help of 90 firefighters.
The flames spread to the side and central aisles, then to the roof and bell tower, which collapsed. No injuries were reported. About 50 nearby residents were evacuated as a precaution.
The cause of the fire is not yet known. An investigation will be launched.
Not a week goes by without an attack on churches in Europe.
