Free Tour Legends of Cuenca: Ambient Tour
♡ Save


Discover Cuenca completely differently through its legends, mysteries, and enigmas. Let yourself be enveloped by the secrets of this medieval city. Take advantage of this great adventure!
Our meeting point will be the Fuente del Pilón, in the Plaza Mayor, the only fountain in the square (in front of the Cathedral stairs).
Our first stop will be in a passageway in the neighborhood of San Miguel, where it is said that ghosts used to appear and terrorize the population. From there, we will go down to learn about the most famous legend of the city, the legend of the Cross of the Convert. Then we will go to the Plaza del Trabuco, to tell one of the most beautiful, romantic and sad stories of Cuenca.
We will go down to tell the Legend of the Cristo del Pasadizo, a love story that ended in tragedy and, from there, we will finish in the Plaza de Mangana, telling the most famous witches' legend of the city.
ASPECTS TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT ABOUT THE TOUR
NOTE 1: the tour can be done with a stroller, but it is more comfortable to take a backpack with the little ones, as there will be stairs in many sections. NOTE 2: it is perfectly complementary to the "Daytime Wonder" and "Night Spell" tours, because although you will pass through several of their sections, the content is 100% different and, in addition, you will get to know other corners.
