Church of La Milagrosa

The Church of La Milagrosa is a Gothic Revival and Neo-Mudéjar religious building in Madrid's Chamberí district, distinguished by two prominent towers at its front. Inside, the space opens into three naves separated by substantial pillars that structure the interior.

The church was designed by architects Juan Bautista Lázaro de Diego and Narciso Clavería y de Palacios and completed in 1904. It arose during a period of growth and urban expansion in this part of Madrid.

The name "La Milagrosa" refers to a miracle connected with this site, reflecting its spiritual significance for local residents. Visitors can observe today how people use the space for personal devotion and prayer.

The site is accessible on foot from Alonso Cano metro station and is centrally located in the neighborhood. Visitors should check visiting times and service schedules before arriving, as these may affect access.

The ambulatory in the choir features an unusual design with alternating square and triangular vaults, a detail rarely seen in traditional church construction. This architectural choice drew inspiration from Toledo Cathedral.
