The reopening of Notre Dame will be a high-security affair, with a repeat of some of the same measures used during the Paris Olympics .

Police chief Laurent Nuñez said only people with invitations and the island's residents will have access to the Ile de la Cité.

He said about 50 heads of state and government are expected and security arrangements are drawing on the police measures that sealed off large sections of central Paris for the Paris Games' opening ceremony.
