Saint Jean (Lyon) Cathedral and Bonaparte
Bridge, Lyon France
Lyon Cathedral (Cathédrale Saint-Jean-Baptiste de
Lyon) is the seat of the
Archbishop of Lyon.
The cathedral is also known as a "Primatiale" because in
1079 the Pope granted to the archbishop of Lyon the title of Primate of
All the Gauls with the legal supremacy over the principal archbishops of
the kingdom.
It was completed in 1476. |
