The Museum of Contemporary Art of Castile and León is housed in a striking modern building whose glass facade is composed of hundreds of coloured panels inspired by the stained glass of the city's Gothic cathedral. Opened in 2005 and recognised with a major European architecture prize, it presents rotating exhibitions of contemporary art across a series of interconnected galleries. The rainbow-hued exterior has become a landmark in its own right, part of León's growing reputation as a centre for contemporary culture.
