    Beautiful dark church open daily for religious and cultural visits. The resplendant main altar is well lit but still very dark. Every chapel is a Spanish baroque masterpiece but the church wall are in need of restoration, the west entry interior being worked on now (early 2020). The chapel just inside the south entry, to the left is built on an older chapel, the Mudéjar style comes and tile work are not to be missed.

    Extraordinary! In a city full of extraordinary churches. Shame that they are, like so many here in Spain, doing more damage to the antique frescoes by trying to restore them than the centuries of neglect alone could do. Aside from its many treasures Santa Maria Magdalena has a strongly theatrical overall design. The decorative excitement builds through the painted figures, oversize, to a daylight - drenched golden retablo under the cupola. (Don't miss the TWO large Zurburans hidden on the inside wall of the Chapel to the right of the entrance!)

    Every frequent traveler knows that Europe has infinite churches everywhere. After some time, upon many visits to their buildings, you begin to ignore them all. But I ask you not to underestimate some of them. The Santa Maria Magdalena church is really worthy to be visited. There's a unique design and cozy beauty to it. It's nice to find out there's not such a thing as "more of the same" sometimes...

    (Translated by Google) The Parish of La Magdalena in Seville is a surprising temple for its magnificence and monumentality. Old convent church of the Dominicans of San Pablo. Its exterior is great. But its interior surprises. It is fully decorated with paintings. Its altarpieces are magnificent. It is home to two leading brotherhoods of Seville, such as Quinta Angustia and Calvario. Along with Salvador and Santa Ana de Triana, it is one of the three main churches in Seville. (Original) La Parroquia de la Magdalena de Sevilla es un templo sorprendente por su magnificencia y monumentalidad. Antigua iglesia conventual de los dominicos de San Pablo. Su exterior es grandioso. Pero su interior sorprende. Está totalmente decorado con pinturas. Sus retablos son magníficos. Es sede de dos cofradias señeras de Sevilla, como son la Quinta Angustia y el Calvario. Junto al Salvador y Santa Ana de Triana es una de las tres principales iglesias de Sevilla.

    We happened to stumble into his church randomly and received a wonderful surprise. The inside is beautifully crafted and painted. The rooftop is even iconic on the skyline being very pretty painted. Consider exploring the inside of you're nearby because it's worth a visit.

    (Translated by Google) Seen only from outside, considering the "very strange" times for a Spanish Church ... (7: 45_11: 00) ... (Original) Vista solo da fuori considerati gli orari "stranissimi" per una Chiesa Spagnola...(7:45_11:00)...

    (Translated by Google) Very nice, quiet parish although there are always parishioners and visitors with absolute respect. Due to its historical type of construction, the temperature is pleasant. It has different chapels. Choir, an organ of which very few are seen. In her reside two Brotherhoods of silence, very respected and that make station of penance in Easter. Brotherhood of El Calvario and Brotherhood of La Quinta Angustia. For me it is an exceptional Parish. I recommend her to all parishioners and to be visited in silence and with respect. (Original) Parroquia muy bonita, tranquila aunque siempre hay feligreses y visitantes con absoluto respeto. Por su tipo de construcción, histórica, la temperatura es agradable. Cuenta con diferentes capillas. Coro, órgano de los que se ven muy pocos. En ella residen dos Hermandades de silencio, muy respetas y que hacen estación de penitencia en Semana Santa. Hermandad de El Calvario y la Hermandad de La Quinta Angustia. Para mi es, una Parroquia excepcional. La recomiendo a todos los feligreses y a ser visitada en silencio y con respeto.

    Really the most interesting church in the whole Sevilla. Its a shame they dont have enough money or attention to repair it properly, because many missing paintings would make it the most beautiful in Sevilla!

  • 5/5 Cindy P. 4 years ago on Google
    We get to go in for free on Sun evening, as it is open for Sunday Mass. It is stunning inside, and you can imagine how rich is the Spanish empire back then.

  • 5/5 Gemunu P. 4 years ago on Google
    Probably the most beautiful cathedral I have visited and in excellent condition. Lot's to see and a wealth of history. The climb to the bell tower is wheelchair accessible because the staircase has been replaced by ramps.

  • 5/5 Carmen M. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Surely, for its frescoes, altarpiece and majesty, my favorite in Seville. The times I have attended Mass here, homilies that do not leave you indifferent. Living church, many parishioners usually attend. I love San José de Montañés, one of the few that reflects the love and tenderness that exists between the father and the Child. Wonderful when there is live music. I recommend guided tours. (Original) Seguramente, por sus frescos, retablo y majestuosidad, mi favorita de Sevilla. Las veces que he asistido a misa aquí, homilías que no te dejan indiferente. Iglesia viva, suelen asistir muchos feligreses. Me encanta el San José de Montañés, uno de los pocos que refleja el amor y ternura que hay entre el padre y el Niño. Maravilla cuando hay música en directo. Aconsejo las visitas guiadas.

    A beautiful Baroque church in Seville, Spain. It is in the older part of the city and slightly hidden. We were staying at Hotel Melia Sevilla and i came upon this beautiful church while exploring the area on foot. It is a large building and has quite an unassuming exterior. The interior is quite ornate and beautiful A wedding was taking place with beautiful music accompanying the ceremony. I saw people going in and followed them and stood at the back enjoying the music and the ambiance.
