Welcome to Burgos — the medieval heart of Castile
Today you will see:
- Burgos Cathedral - the main Gothic shrine in Spain and a UNESCO heritage site
- The Arch of Santa Maria - the former main entrance to the city, decorated with figures of kings and heroes
- Burgos Castle - where the panorama on the spire of the cathedral and the red roofs of the old town opens
Interesting fact: in the Burgos Cathedral there is a mechanical figure - “Pope Moscow”, who opens his mouth every time the bell rings. It was installed more than 200 years ago to entertain parishioners during worship services.
