The Sarum Rite, a unique and ancient liturgical tradition, holds a special place in the hearts of many across various Christian denominations. Originating from the Salisbury Cathedral in the 11th century, this rite has woven its way through history, impacting not just the Roman Catholic Church, but also the Eastern Orthodox and Anglican communities.

At its core, the Sarum Rite is essentially the Roman Rite with a distinct twist – approximately ten percent of its content is derived from other sources. It’s Mass is near identical to the Tridentine Mass, too. This blend created a rich and diverse liturgical experience, one that was widely adopted across the British Isles and even parts of northwestern Europe.

The journey of the Sarum Rite began with Bishop Osmund of Salisbury in 1078. He merged Norman and Anglo-Saxon traditions, creating a new liturgical usage that resonated deeply across England, Wales, and Ireland. Interestingly, liturgical historians believe this rite even influenced other Roman rites in Norway and Portugal.
