Ermita del Cristo de la Vega, Mudéjar hermitage in Toledo, Spain.

The Ermita del Cristo de la Vega features a semicircular apse with superimposed brick friezes and different styles of blind arcades on its facades.

Built on the remains of a 7th-century Visigothic basilica, the structure underwent reconstruction in 1826 after its destruction during the Spanish War of Independence.

The presbytery houses a distinctive crucifix sculpture where Christ's hand is detached from the cross, connecting to a local medieval legend.

The hermitage requires advance reservations for visits and can be reached through a five-minute walk from Puerta del Cambrón with parking available nearby.

The building contains three superimposed blind friezes in its apse, including horseshoe arches and intertwined multifoil arches made entirely of brick.
