Iglesia de San Francisco
Santuario Diocesano San Francisco de Asís
Built in 1639, this is one of the oldest churches in Leon, located adjacent to the former Franciscan convent. The church closed in 1830 when the Franciscan friars were expelled, but it was reconstructed in the 1960s. It has a nice bell tower and some beautiful altarpieces. Also note the small colorful woodcarvings depicting the forteen stations of the cross. Outside the church there is a statue of Saint Francis talking to a wolf.
