It’s an inspiring vision and particularly seeing it for the first time early morning and with suffusing clear blue-sky light enhancing throughout. Sublime stone craft on the facades is a beautiful prelude to stepping inside. Standing at the rear and gazing along the light filled nave bordered by graceful soaring slender columns was a memorable experience. Natural light through gorgeous stained glass and filling the holy space was a special sight. Decorative beauty is everywhere. Statuary is plentiful and portrays holy images, supplemented by religious paintings.

On a little square in the heart of the old town Vieux Ville. Beautiful small cathedral with fantastic stained glass windows. Check out the small museum on right as you come in.

Wow. We spent the day touring around Lyon and decided to visit the cathedral, and then have lunch in the square in front. The cathedral is stunningly beautiful and a real pleasure to explore. The stained glass is absolutely beautiful -- a riot of color that has been well-preserved. The church was quiet and easy to explore. Entry was free, though donations were encouraged. There was a small gift shop with nice postcards. Definitely worth your time while in Lyon.
