Jaen Cathedral Guided Tour

  • 176 reviews | 1,981 travellers
    Very good, the guide was friendly and knowledgeable, punctual as has always happened with Civitatis. The negative; I have respiratory problems and before booking I asked if there was an elevator to go up to the balcony and admire the city from there, they agreed to inform me because they did not know and I am still waiting. So that you know if there is an elevator, I think they should be informed of the accessibility of the places they show. Greetings.

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, one of the most beautiful parts of this Renaissance temple.

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

Then we'll have time to go up to the high galleries, where we'll have some magnificent views of Jaen, perfect for taking some beautiful photos.

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

Important Information

  • Although the guided tour is free for children under 12, they must pay 1.5 euros when entering the Cathedral.
