Burgos is well known for its cathedral. In fact, it is the third largest cathedral in Spain, (252 ft long and 180 ft wide). The construction of this masterpiece of gothic art began in 1221 and continued on for three centuries. You'll be amazed by its facade and the finely worked floral decoration of its two spires.
Burgos, founded in 884 on the banks of the Rio Arlanzon, was the capitol of the Kingdom of Castille and Leon for several centuries. The town grew between the 15th and 16th centuries because of a booming textile trade, which ensured the town's prosperity.
