The Parish of Santa María Magdalena in Menasalbas, Toledo, is a historic temple dating back to the 16th century. The church is known for its impressive architecture, which includes a Gothic chancel designed by Juan de Aguirre and a later phase with Renaissance columns by Hernán González.
The church has no tower, as it was demolished during the Carlist conflicts of the 1830s. In its place, a bell gable was erected in the 1860s. The main altar is presided over by an altarpiece of the Adoration of the Magi, which includes a carving of Saint Mary Magdalene.⛪translated by•September 23, 2024
