The Holy Metropolitan Cathedral Church of Santa María la Real de la Almudena, known simply as the Almudena Cathedral, is a Catholic cathedral dedicated to the Virgin Mary under the invocation of La Almudena, and the episcopal see of Madrid.Built very close to the site of the previous and very old church of Santa María de la Almudena, which was itself built on top of a mosque, the cathedral is dedicated to the Virgin of Almudena, patron saint of Madrid. The name of this Virgin and cathedral derives from the Arabic word al-mudayna, which means ‘citadel’. The cathedral is located in the historic centre of the city of Madrid; the main façade faces the Royal Palace, while the façade of the transept faces Calle de Bailén and access to the crypt is via Cuesta de la Vega, at the end of Calle Mayor. Unlike most Christian temples, which are oriented east-west, the cathedral is oriented north-south, as a result of its conception as an integral part of the Royal Palace complex.
