Come and take a look around this beautiful old church whose architecture will take you aback. Make sure you have your camera handy.

Iglesia de la Virgen de la Huerta, La Virgen de la Huerta Church in Ademuz, located in El Rincón de Ademuz in inland province of Valencia, is a beautiful Romanesque place of worship dating back to the 12th and 13th centuries. Over the years, a number of elements and details from different architectural styles have been added to the church. This treasure has been one of the destination’s landmarks for centuries.

La Virgen de la Huerta Church has a unique façade, defined by a porch that is propped up by two columns. The arch surrounding the door still bears a coloured inscription in Hebrew, which is a rare feature. Inside La Virgen de la Huerta Church, there are three naves with Romanesque arches and old frescoes decorating the walls and vaults.

One of the paintings in particular will capture your attention: a Gothic work dedicated to the figure of María Magdalena. Beyond visiting this church, Ademuz has all sorts of sights both in and around its centre. We would recommend setting off to visit the incredible Iberian settlement of La Celadilla and taking a look around Ademuz Castle. The historical heritage sites populating this destination sitting on the banks of the River Turia will blow you away: so come for a visit.
