Relics and Feast Day of Mary Magdalene
From The Red Pill
The relics of Mary Magdalene are housed in a crypt in the basilica in St. Maximin in Provence, France. Behind protective glass lies her blackened skull adorned with a red wig. On the Feast Day of St. Mary Magdalene on July 22nd, a procession carries her relics through Provence. Le Grotte de Marie Madeleine, the Cave of Solitude, can be found by climbing high up the hillside in the Forest of Baume. Here in seclusion is where she is said to have spent twenty-two years. Famed as both a prophetess and healer, she is now the patron saint of Provence.
