Rite of Lyon

Read mass in the rite of Lyon, anamnesis. Note the freely standing altar, the celebrant extending his hands in modum crucis, and the chalice covered by the large corporal.

The Rite of Lyon (Latin: ritus Lugdunensis, sometimes ritus Romano-Lugdunensis; French: rite lyonnais) is a liturgical rite of the Latin Church once used generally in the Archdiocese of Lyon, now celebrated only in a few churches. It can be considered as the most ancient form of the Roman rite.
