The tower of the Gothic cathedral in Rouen, Normandy, was on fire. Images from French media show the dark clouds of smoke.
Construction work is currently underway on the tower.
The fire appears to have started on Thursday afternoon. The major fire-fighting operation is still underway, but the fire is under control.
The cathedral has been evacuated. Emergency services are on the scene to assist those affected.
"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
