Ieronimus Tower (Old Cathedral)

Worth every cent and step! This is a very special thing to do in Salamanca! Not only did we get incredibly beautiful views from the top of the tower, we got incredible views from several sides of the cathedral and into the cathedral! A lot of fun going in and out of doors to new views. Such a surprise to be high above the nave of the cathedral. Also a blast being scared by the ringing bells while right under them in the bell tower! There is a "traffic light" to keep people from having to pass each other in the winding staircase. The exhibits are very good too. The 1566 book on Aristotle...wow. We booked our tickets on line for a timed entry and would recommend doing this as there were some groups going in also.

One of my favourite visits at Salamanca, wonderful view of insight and outside of the cathedral, and of course the surroundings (including the library). Interesting historical information though (currently) only in Spanish. The stairways are not suitable for young children or the infirm.

Great way to get a bird's eye view of the city and surrounding countryside. You get to see parts of the new cathedral as you weave your way to the top of the tower. The spiral staircase gets a little bit tighter the higher you go up but there are timers that let you know when you can go up or down. You can actually go into the bell tower while the bells are chiming. It's pretty loud but neat to experience.

Great value €4 each to visit the towers of the cathedral’s. Views across the city and beyond. Get to see inside the cathedral too from a high up viewing area. Keep an eye out for the storks nesting on the university bell tower and surrounding buildings. Information is only in Spanish. QR codes for English but the free wifi is not the best and signal 4G is very poor.

Dont pay to visit the cathedral. Just pay 4 euros for this tower and you get to see both cathedrals from upper floor. Great deal

Absolutely amazing, the best thing to do on a long list of great things in Salamanca. Visit the Cathedral first then see it from a wonderful view. You can never normally walk on those balconies high up in cathedrals, bows your chance. Then on to roofs and real close ups of the stunning architecture on both the old and new(1700) buildings. Enjoy great views over the city. All for €4 pp. They have a great traffic light system for the narrow stairs so no trying to pass people. Use the free Wi-Fi to scan the QR codes. We really loved this experience, DO NOT MISS IT.

Well worth a visit and excellent value for money. You are able to view the cathedral and the city from different points during the climb, so you can take plenty of rest between each stage. There are interesting displays at each stage too. Really liked the birds eye view inside the cathedral. Great views of the historic centre. Interesting to observe the resident stork perched on one of the roofs. For us it would have been helpful to have some information in English.

Excellent views of Salamanca. Nice to head up to the church bells and be amongst the Gothic spires. Well worth €4. But to be honest. The cathedral costs €10 to visit and seeing it is the same building, the cost really should be incorporated or they could do a combined ticket offer for €12.
