A beautiful Church located on the right side of the Saône river. Unfortunately it was closed when I visited but thoroughly admired the building. This is a neo-gothic architecture and a listed monument. It's particularly stunning if viewing from the Passerelle Saint George Suspension Bridge as one really appreciate the beautiful Church façades. Of note is the main entrance door with the pediment showing Saint George slaying the dragon. It's also on the Vieux-Port of Lyon which is the old city. Beautiful Church to look at.

Église Saint-Georges was established in the 6th century and underwent several reconstructions over the centuries. The current structure, completed in 1848, was designed by architect Pierre Bossan in the Neo-Gothic style. The façade features a sculpture of Saint George slaying the dragon.

Built in 1844, the first work of Pierre Bossan, which he considered his "youthful sin", the St-Georges church, in neo-Gothic style, is located on the site of the Commanderie of the same name, which occupied the places since the Middle Ages.

Attractive neogothic church in the centre of Lyon offering the traditional Latin liturgy. Mass in the ancient Lyonese rite is celebrated at 9:00 on Sundays followed by Grande Masse (a Missa Cantata) at 10.30 and Low Mass at 7:30PM.

I attended the Grande Messe which was pleasant, except that the Epistle and Gospel were read in the vernacular facing the people, the Credo was intoned from the sedilia, and Pater Noster sung by the congregation. I'm not sure why such things are necessary,...

Wonderful little church located at the heart of the "old Lyon". Gothic style, with a more traditional feel to it. If you want to know what a real French church looks like well you should really check it out. It has a lively community with regular mass and activities. Here you can assist to mass in Latin. Be sure to check it out if it's your kind of thing. Lovely place, a bit like a time capsule.
