After the Arab baths and a quick look at the central courtyard of the palace we walked to the Church of Mary Magdalene to see the original Moorish ablutions bath there as the church was built on the site of the mosque and retained some Moorish colonnades too. The tower was originally the minaret but not sure if it is possible to climb it. The church is the oldest in the city and when we visited there was a mannequin (not sure of that's the right word) that is carried around the town during Holy Week.

It is one of the oldest churches in the city of Jaén located in a traditional neighborhood. We went to visit her last Holy Tuesday. It is home to the Ancient and Illustrious Brotherhood, popularly known as La Magdalena.

Church of Santa María Magdalena Jaén It is the oldest in Jaén built on a mosque from which the minaret is preserved. The cover is Gothic. Opposite is the stream, which is the old spring that supplied water to Jaén. It is located in the La Morería neighborhood, nearby is the Jewish quarter.

Located in the Magdalena neighborhood to which it gives its name, it was originally a mosque of which the minaret and the ablution courtyard are preserved. It is also the oldest church in the city. To highlight, the Gothic façade and inside a Calvary by Jacobo Florentino; a panel of Our Lady of Pilar and San Antón by Pedro Machuca; the Christ of Clemency by Salvador de Cuéllar and the Magdalena by Mateo de Medina; The Christ of the Corpus by Jerónimo Quijano and Our Father Jesus of the Fall, the work of Emilio Navas Parejo from Granada. From the patio next to the pond there are views of the Santa Catalina Castle from which you can take some beautiful photos.

It's hardly ever open, it's a shame because it's beautiful from the outside.
