The Royal Pantheon of
San Isidoro is one of the
most important pictorial
ensembles in European
Romanesque art. Beneath
its vaults rest the monar-
chs of the former Kingdom
of León, surrounded by an
exceptional cycle of fres-
coes that has endured for
nearly a thousand years
as a testament to art, faith
and history
