León
As the old capital of the Castile and León region, the city of León gained its importance during the ancient Roman occupancy.
Roman traces can still be found today in and around León, of which the Las Medulas gold mines are a tourist highlight. The
city had a revival during the Middle Ages when the Knights Templar settled here and build a variety of castles and
fortifications. The main attraction of León is without doubt the gothic Cathedral, of which the construction started in the
13th century and was completed 200 years later! An amazing showcase of medieval architecture and especially the stained
glass windows astonish in craftsmanship as well as in variety and amount. Other monumental sights of León are the Basilica
de San Isidoro church and the San Marcos monastery. Tourists with the desire to escape the major tourist hot-spots of Spain
will feel at ease in León as the city escaped the country’s tourist boom. Strolling around the old medieval center of León
one can take time to relax and mingle with the local populations’ daily routine.
