A single-nave, rectangular Baroque church with a Latin cross floor plan, with a flat apse and a choir stall at the foot. It is built with brick and masonry walls typical of the Toledo construction. The nave is covered with a barrel vault, and the transept has a half-orange dome. At its foot is a two-story granite doorway with a niche containing a stone image of Saint Mary Magdalene, the church's patron saint. The façade is topped with a large triangular pediment and a small bell gable. The bell tower, located on the left side and set back from the main façade, stands out for the height and slenderness of the spire that covers it. The building was rebuilt in the 17th century due to its state of ruin, but its exact origins are unknown, and are sometimes confused with those of the Hermitage of Our Lady of Burguillos. The sad events of 1936 led to the destruction of all the altarpieces and ornaments in the church. The church was dominated by a large canvas (8.60 x 4.31 meters), painted in oil by Francisco Rizi in 1675, depicting Saint Mary Magdalene, the parish's patron saint, surrounded by angels, clouds, and glory. The painting was housed in a large, gilded, Baroque-style altarpiece that served as a gigantic frame. The people of Burgos celebrate festivals in honor of the Virgin of the Rosary, the Christ of Faith, and the Virgin of Magdalene.

Built during the Middle Ages next to the western entrance gate to the town of Orgaz, it was for years a key element in the settlement's defense and surveillance functions. Although we now know it as the Castle of the Counts of Orgaz, when it was built, the castle belonged to the Lords of Orgaz. The Lordship of Orgaz was established in 1220 when Ferdinand III granted Ferdinand Juan de Alfariella, who had purchased the town of Orgaz from the Church of Santo Tomé, the title of Lord. Orgaz did not become a County until 1520 when the title of Count of Orgaz was granted to Álvaro Pérez de Guzmán by King Charles I.

The Almonacid Castle in Toledo is a Muslim building that was donated by Alfonso VI to the Toledo Cathedral. Its current configuration is due to the reforms carried out by Archbishop D. Pedro Tenorio in the 14th century and later it served as a prison for D. Alfonso de Gijón y Noreña, bastard son of Enrique II. In the 16th century, D. Pedro Gumiel commented that the fortress needed urgent repairs. In the 18th century it passed into the hands of the counts of Mora and during the War of Independence, in the 19th century (1809), it was a refuge for the troops of General Venegas, with the Battle of Almonacid taking place at its feet, which ended with the capture of the castle by the French. In 1839 the mayor of Almonacid allowed the residents of the town to use the material from which it was made for private use, further accentuating its ruin. Today the castle is property of the City Council and access is free.
