Sello at Leon Cathedral?

[mustang2actual]

I’m coming up empty on whether a Sello can be obtained at the Leon Cathedral - are they available? Much appreciated.

If I recall correctly there is a museum attached to the cathedral. I was able to get my passport stamp from them. I don't recall trying the cathedral itself. Cheers

You get your stamp when you leave the cathedral.

Check out the audio tour at Leon Cathedral. It was interesting. The English version had British accents that I thought was weird. .

I got it from the cathedral museum.

Same here. I tried the cathedral but got referred to the museum

The sello is in the Museum because it’s very old

The tourist office opposite the cathedral will also provide a sello

As I recall it works like this: If you go in through the main entrance you pay for cathedral admission and get given audio etc if that's what you want. After wandering around for a bit, the signage pretty much shepherds you out through the cathedral shop where you can ask for the sello.
Alternatively you can go straight to the cathedral shop on the left side of the main entrance and request the sello without going through the cathedral. I think you can also walk around the cloisters there for free, where they've parked a lot of sculpture...

Or get one at the TI (travel information center) directly opposite the Cathedral on the Plaza.

Here is a thought, somewhat related. I dont know if "they" still do it, but right at the entry to the Cathedral there was a bunch of "souvenir" books available when I was there in June of last year. Not the little cheapy ones - more like something you'd by in the Museum store. Not overly large either (although I would still probably mail it out home instead of walking with it to SdC and possibly beyond).....
Anyways, if that is still true - grab one (heck do so anyway!) and when getting your Credential stamped with Sello - ask if they will stamp the book (the inside black left cover page for example). Honestly I see no reason for refusing to to so and hopefully they wont
IMHO, that would make a GREAT gift for either a clergy or an architect friend or acquaintance you may have.
I did grab a book with intention to present that to my Pastors (husband & wife team, and she was instrumental in me "finding" the Camino and obviously embarking on it) but I wish that I had the Sello in it for them

It would be weirder if it was an American or Australian accent in a cathedral in Europe.
