Marta S.
At the heart of Girona’s Old Town, La Lleona is a little stone lioness from the 12th century, and there’s a well-known local custom tied to it. The story goes that touching her bottom is meant to help you return to Girona, or stay there forever.

Steven H.
There’s a story behind it, though it’s easy to walk right past without noticing. You take a look, then move on pretty quickly. And no kissing anymore...
Hannah W.
You're meant to kiss the lioness on the backside, but they don't allow it anymore 🥲
Kevin M.
While wandering Girona’s old quarter, you can try a little leap and kiss the lioness on her rear!

The old Hostal de la Lleona dates back to the 11th century and had a heraldic lion on its sign. Kissing the lion’s bottom, or cul de lleona, was supposed to bring good luck. That’s been forbidden since Covid.
