The Church of Mary Magdalene is an Eastern Orthodox church on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, directly across the Kidron Valley from the Garden of Gethsemane. Built in 1885 in the Russian Revival style to designs by David Grimm, it is constructed of sandstone and is a recognised heritage site. It forms part of the Convent of St. Mary Magdalene, a sisterhood established in 1936 by an English convert, and has been under the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia since the 1920s.
