Romanesque basilica built from 1063 on the site of an earlier wrecked monastery, which in turn was over a Roman temple. The highlight is the "pantheon" or funeral chapel of the kings of León, with magnificent ceiling frescoes. Lying here are King Ferdinand I (1015-1065) and St Isidore of Seville (560-636). The library is packed with 10th-, 11th- and 12th-century manuscripts.
St. Isidore's Basilica is a Catholic church in the city of León, Castile and León, Spain, located on the site of an ancient Roman temple. Its Christian roots can be traced back to the early 10th century when a monastery for Saint John the Baptist was erected on the grounds.
