Santuari de Santa Maria Magdalena

The most famous building in Novelda is without a doubt the Sanctuary of Mary Magdalene. A Modernist Building realised by the engineer Jose Sala Sala. Its construction, initiated in 1918, is entirely of marble. Its singular facade, framed by two slender bell towers, give it a similar appearance to the Sagrada Familia of Barcelona. Inside, large paintings can be admired, depicting of the life of the Saint, along with three large altarpieces made of tiles, placed either side of the main doors. . It contains both Medieval style and Baroque.
