The Collegiate Church is one of the most important Romanesque buildings in Spain.

Spain Westward Journey ~ León (Region) It was built on the foundations of an earlier church dedicated to St. John the Baptist, which was demolished by Mansur in 988. Alfonso V restored it; Ferdinand I subsequently built a new church, to which the relics of St. Isidore and St. Vincent were transferred, giving it particular importance. The church was originally built in Asturian Pre-Romanesque style and was later rebuilt in full Romanesque style, with three naves and a sanctuary with three apses. When it was converted to the Gothic style, one of the apses was demolished. #JanuaryDestinations2025 #SpainTravel #CastileandLeón
