Milan, 18 July (LaPresse/AP) – The restoration of Nagasaki Cathedral, destroyed by an atomic bomb dropped by the United States during World War II 80 years ago, has been completed in Japan. The last piece to be restored by a group of Americans was the bell, which was blessed during a ceremony held in the religious building yesterday in the presence of over 100 worshippers and other participants. The bell will be hung inside the cathedral in August, the anniversary of the bombing, filling the empty bell tower for the first time.
