I find Eastern Orthodox Magdalene churches more interesting architecturally than Western Catholic ones. The one above is in Mikaszówce, NE Poland, near the border with Belarus and Lithuania.

The Russian Orthodox Church of Mary Magdalene on the slope of the Mount of Olives, in the Garden of Gethsemane, Jerusalem is surely one of the most spectacular of Mary Magdalene churches. It was commissioned by the Tsar Alexander III in 1886.
