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. It is a place of friendly people, where you can enjoy its streets and surroundings, where the traveler discovers the Parish Church of Santa María Magdalena, the Hermitage of San Blas, the jurisdictional roll... A historical anecdote about Burguillos de Toledo is the visit to this town by the first American in orbit and companion of the first man to walk on the moon, Neil Armstrong. This visit took place in 1965 due to his relationship with a local resident who worked as a secretary at the U.S. Embassy in Spain.

Arisgotas is a district of Orgaz where the ruins of the archaeological site of Los Hitos are located, an ancient Visigothic monastery of which a few ruins remain. However, on this route, since it is by road, we do not pass through here; but in the center of the town, where we can see the Parish of Our Lady of the Assumption, built at the end of the 15th century and beginning of the 16th century, and inside which we can see Mudejar coffered ceilings and polychrome wood carvings. Its portico and small circular tower also draw attention.
