Iglesia Parroquial del Santo Cristo de la Luz - Mairena, Granada, España - Roman Catholic Churches on Waymarking.com

"El antiguo edificio fue construido entre 1604 y 1610. La actual iglesia se inició en 1704 y constituye un buen ejemplo de la pervivencia de la arquitectura religiosa mudéjar. El terremoto de 1884 le afectó gravemente e hizo pensar en su traslado a otro lugar, pero no se encontró ningún sitio idóneo.

Presenta una nave y capilla mayor diferenciada por arco de medio punto. La sacristía está arrimada a la cabecera en el lado del evangelio, mientras que la torre se levanta en el ángulo opuesto, a los pies. Los muros son de ladrillo y cajón de mampostería."

"The old building was built between 1604 and 1610. The current church was started in 1704 and is a good example of the survival of Mudejar religious architecture. The earthquake of 1884 seriously affected it and made it think about moving it to another place, but No suitable site was found.

It has a nave and main chapel differentiated by a semicircular arch. The sacristy is close to the chancel on the gospel side, while the tower rises at the opposite angle, at the foot. The walls are made of brick and masonry box."
