Overview
Enjoy the best tour of the city with Leonese guides who will make your stay in León unforgettable. We will show you the most important monuments of our two-thousand-year-old city, from the Roman origin to the Middle Ages (where the Cathedral and San Isidoro will be essential).
Without forgetting the history of our roots as "Kingdom and Cradle of Parliamentarism", for 320 years as the Independent Kingdom. Ordoño II, Fernando and Doña Sancha, Doña Urraca and her Chalice, El Cid, the eternal rival families such as the Montagues and the Capulets, but in the "Leonese" style; They will transport us to a glorious time. At the end of the 19th century, Antoni Gaudí arrived in the capital to design an authentic fairy tale palace, "La Casa Botines", just as Teresa, the second wife of the Leonese businessman and promoter, Simón Fernández, wanted.
From the Plaza de San Marcelo, we will see the Old Town Hall, the church of the Roman centurion and Calle Ancha, the quintessential place for festivals and traditions (San Froilán and the Holy Week processions).
