Tour description

El Pilar is the most emblematic monument in the city of Zaragoza and hides an infinite number of details, secrets , stories and mysteries that we are going to reveal to you on this 1 hour and a quarter tour of its interior.

What will you discover on the tour?

  • The entire history of the temple , more than 2000 years according to tradition.
  • All of Goya's work in El Pilar , from his beginnings as a student to his development as a highly recognized painter .
  • The column of the Virgin and everything we know about it.
  • The impressive Renaissance altarpiece and choir .
  • The popular tradition of the ribbons and the cult of the Virgin over time.

And many, many more things that we do not want to reveal ahead of time.

El Pilar is a temple where mass is celebrated constantly , that is why there are days when we may not be able to see the entire temple , even so the tours always last an hour and a quarter , since there are many things to discover in this building.
The most conflictive days are Sundays , since the masses tend to be long and there is nothing we can do other than notify you and always ask you MAXIMUM PUNCTUALITY for this tour.

Do not doubt that this is the most complete way to discover the most important and spectacular building in all of Zaragoza.
We will wait for you!
