contents By median we mean a scheme that inputs three element of a lattice, and outputs an element that is an average of the three inputs in a certain sense. The medians of a given finite lattice form a new lattice that is usually larger than the original, but generates a (not necessarily strictly) smaller variety. A median is called inner if it is a term function. The inner median lattice is closely related to the symmetric part of the equational basis of the lattice. We determine the outer and inner median lattices of all lattices of at most six elements.
