Description

Book your place now on this Cathedral of Leon Tour and discover the secrets of the city´s premier Catholic temple. This monument boasts one of the most impressive collections of stained-glass windows in all of Europe filling the cathedral with light and magic.

On our guided tour, alongside an expert Spanish speaking guide, find out all there is to know about one of the star landmarks of Gothic style with French influences in Spain. The temple is erected on the same site where previously there were impressive Roman thermal springs and whose remains were found years back and only a Roman camp left.

From the Cathedral´s square, admire why this stunning Gothic gift is one of the most important jewels in the entire city. Renowned for its enormous and colourful windows, on its stained-glass windows you´ll be able to contemplate some scenes of biblical characters from the Gospel. An example of this is the Miracles of Simon the Sorceror, a religious Samaritan magus, a rival of Jesus Christ, a protagonist of the primitive Christian culture that takes up one of the main stained-glass windows of the cathedral.

The Pulchra Leonina (Beauty of León) forms part of one of the routes on the Camino de Santiago and is recognized as one of the most important Gothic temples in the world and has hidden some of the more fascinating cultures like the nun with two faces or the animals that decorate the cathedral´s façade. The devil is also represented in several figures that decorate the cathedral where the Demon Baphomet appears.

Inside the cathedral is the Cathedral Museum, if you decide to visit it too. And, together with our guide, we will try to discover more about the unknown architects of Bella Leona.
