The Basilica of the Virgen de la Peña is, without a doubt, the most emblematic building in the city of Graus. As its name indicates, the basilica stands on a hill guarded by a great rock wall. The current temple was built in the 16th century, although there was already a Romanesque sanctuary before. It is well worth visiting the cloister of the basilica, from where you have fantastic views of Graus and the surroundings. In summer, classical music concerts are also held in the cloister.

Hiking

Presiding over Graus and visible from the whole town, it is also a very good place to observe it.
