Its magnificent façade makes Jaen Cathedral one of the most remarkable works of the Spanish Renaissance. On this guided tour, we'll find out all about this breathtaking building!

Jaen Cathedral Guided Tour

From the Plaza Santa María, in the heart of Jaén, we'll begin a complete tour of the Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgin. We'll be waiting for you at its main entrance, a significant part of this Renaissance temple.

Once inside, we'll visit rooms designed by Andrés de Vandelvira, such as the Sacristy, the Chapterhouse, and the Canon's Pantheon. We'll also learn about its Choir, known for being one of the largest in Spain.

Then we'll have time to go up to the high galleries, where we can enjoy some views of Jaen, suitable for photography.

As we explore its corridors, we'll discover interesting stories this cathedral offers. Is it true that the Veil of Veronica has been seen in Jaen? We'll learn more about the temple before concluding the visit at the cathedral's entrance.
