A controversial redesign of the interior of Notre-Dame cathedral has been approved by heritage authorities, including possible street art installations and softer mood lighting for the Parisian landmark.

But the changes have sparked criticism, with around 100 public figures putting their names to an opinion piece in the right-wing newspaper Le Figaro last week, saying they "entirely undermine the decor and religious space" of the historic site.
