Church of St Mary Magdalene, Valletta

The Church of St Mary Magdalene is a Roman Catholic church building in Valletta, Malta. The church was part of the Magdalene asylum situated adjacent to the church. The church was deconsecrated in the mid 20th century and was blessed again by Bishop Charles Scicluna on February 25, 2015.
==History==
The church was built around the 1595 as the church of the Magdalene nuns whose convent they had adjacent to the church.〔("St.Mary Magdalen" ). Retrieved on 26 October 2014.〕 While most Magdalene monasteries were not wealthy, Malta's Magdalene sisters were indeed. In 1602 Pope Clement VIII gave the house the rights to one fifth of the goods and estates of deceased prostitutes in Malta. This changed the financial status of the order; it soon became the richest monastery in Malta. The works of the Magdalene nuns ended in 1798 with the arrival of the French who took all the monastery's wealth and properties and disbanded its members.〔("Magdalene Nuns and Penitent Prostitutes (Valletta)" ), ''melitensia.blogspot.'', Malta. Retrieved on 26 October 2014.〕 The nuns moved into St Catherine's monastery. The last Magdalene nun died in 1846. The church later served Roman Catholic soldiers stationed in Fort Saint Elmo as well as navy families from the Camerata barracks across the road.〔Scerri, Louis. ("A convent for fallen women" ), ''Times of Malta'', Malta, 23 March 2014. Retrieved on 26 October 2014.〕 In 1941 the monastery was destroyed by air raids during World War II. A primary school was built instead. After this the church was abandoned. The altars of the church were moved to St Catherine's monastery. Later the church of St Mary Magdalene started to serve as a storage garage for carnival floats until 2006. In 2008 the church was cleared and partially restored.〔("One World - Protecting the most significant buildings, monuments and features of Valletta (65) Church of St Mary Magdalene" ), ''Times of Malta'', Malta, 30 December 2008. Retrieved on 26 October 2014.〕
The church building is listed on the National Inventory of the Cultural Property of the Maltese Islands.
