Convento de San Marcos

Beautiful. Museum was closed when we got there, but we were able to see the chapel and the exterior.

Small "museum" 15 to 20 minutes maximum, worth it if you are in the area, otherwise you aren't missing much

Worth the tour We enjoyed a free entrance on Saturday to both the Iglesia the museum but also to cloister

This church and convent building has a very impressive facade. The convent has been converted into a 5 star hotel by Parador. Only hotel customers can enter that side of the building that was the convent. However, the church on the right hand side of the building can be visited by public and it also houses a collection of artwork that is on display. The cloister is open to public also. This is also a must visit place while you are in Leon.

Lovely place to visit. I initially thought that was an entrance fee for it but it is free. Don’t miss the cloister, very beautiful! Definitely worth the visit. Make sure you check hours as they close on the afternoons.

Large open plaza with fountains set in the ground. A lovely place to sit near the river surrounded by some very old and historic building. Entrance fee charged to go in the museum (of Leon)

It's a part of the museum of León and the entrance is free. Convent was built in XVI century. Museum's part has a lot of objects of middle age and baroque. And another part is a hotel now.

The renovation of the building is more than you can expect. It includes a Museo de León exhibition in religious topics. The Iglesia is on the Way of Santiago (El Camino), so you can wonder the building in any time. Perfect place with the amazing and great square to have a rest and get dozens of experiences about León and its past and present.
