It offers one of the most expansive views of the valley and the city. From here, you can make out the cathedral towers, the winding Bernesga River, and, on clear days, the mountains in the distance. It was a former lookout point during the Spanish Civil War, and remnants of trenches still lie hidden among the grass. Today, it's a perfect spot to watch the sunset and feel the light slowly fade over the Leonese landscape.

The Cathedral is undoubtedly the symbol of the city and its history dates back to the 10th century. The royal palace of Ordoño II was located on the old thermal baths and public buildings that the Legion VII had built in the mid-2nd century. In 917, after defeating the Arabs in the battle of San Esteban de Gormaz, the king, “thankful to God”, gave up his residence so that the first cathedral temple could be built there.

The Muralla tardo romana in León, Spain, is an impressive remnant of the Roman presence in the city. These walls were originally built in the 1st century AD by the Legio VI Victrix and later reinforced by the Legio VII Gemina. The walls enclose the old city centre and are a mix of Roman, medieval and Baroque architectural styles1. The Roman sections are recognisable by their thick walls, which are up to 8 metres high and reinforced with towers, known as "cubos". One of the most striking sections of the wall can be found at the Avenida de los Cubos, where the towers are still well preserved.

EL LEÓN DE SALEAL: We go back to Roman times to understand part of the theme of this sculpture. Cloacina, in Roman mythology, was the goddess who ruled over the Cloaca Máxima, the sewer system of Rome. The sewer name comes from the name of this goddess, because thanks to the origin of sewer systems, a quality of life was achieved in terms of sanitation of urban environments and public health from the beginning to the present day. It should be remembered that the origin of the name of this city and province of León comes from the word legio ("legion"). Legio VII Gemina was the Roman camp that settled here and with it the origin of the city of León. A lion with strength and claws as a symbol of the sanitation system (the modern version of Cloacina Máxima) in constant renewal and maintenance. The goal was achieved: to do something symbolic and reflect the efforts and human work of so many years, to give solidity to our public health and the health of the environment.
