About León

León is a medieval city in north-west Spain on the Camino de Santiago, with a Gothic cathedral of stained glass, a Gaudí building and tapas bars.

León began as a Roman legionary camp, whose Latin name, Legio, survives in the city's name, and became the capital of the Kingdom of León in the Middle Ages. Its Gothic cathedral, with walls of stained glass dating from the thirteenth century onward, is famous for the coloured light that fills its interior. Nearby, the Basilica of San Isidoro has a Romanesque royal pantheon whose twelfth-century ceiling paintings earned it the name of the Sistine Chapel of Romanesque art.
