An excerpt from the article 18 facts about Notre-Dame
The spire served as a bell tower. There was a cross with relics hidden inside on top of the spire. In 1606, the cross fell under strong winds and material consumption. The spire gradually disintegrated in the following years, bitten by the teeth of time. Each year, it posed an increasing threat, so the decision was made to dismantle it. The dismantling of the first spire was carried out between 1786 and 1792.
