Wolli Creek, St Magdalen

















St Magdalen's Chapel is a neo-Gothic style chapel at Wolli Creek which is now deconsecrated and has been restored as part of the Discovery Point redevelopment. The Sisters of the Good Samaritan built it in 1888 and it is believed to be designed by Sheerin & Hennessy, a firm of Sydney architects. The sisters bought the Greenbank estate in 1884 for a charitable refuge for women.
