A 14th-century building housing the Museum of the Kingdom of León, though it's small compared to the city museum.
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.
