Overview

Accompanied by a degree in History and an official tourist guide, in this visit we will learn about the changes that our city underwent with the arrival of the railway, the growth of the bourgeoisie and the leap to modernity that León made in the change from the 19th to the 21st century.
We will discover what Gaudí's work in León meant and the radical change that a city underwent that, until the arrival of the railway, seemed anchored in the past.
A modern city, inspired by the Eixample of Barcelona, which today works to overcome the challenges imposed by the rapid changes that the 21st century brings us.
