Église de l'Immaculée-Conception de Lyon, Byzantine Revival church in 3rd arrondissement of Lyon, France.
The church features an octagonal dome supported by slender columns, with lateral chapels and an ambulatory arranged in a Latin cross layout.
Construction of the church occurred in two phases, with the nave built from 1856 to 1859 and the choir and chapels completed between 1889 and 1893.
The interior contains twelve sets of stained glass windows created by Lucien Bégule, depicting religious scenes through artistic craftsmanship.
The religious building spans 800 square meters and maintains regular mass services, weddings, and special ceremonies throughout the calendar year.
The construction required innovative engineering techniques, using groups of thin columns to support the weight of the vaults.
