Żejtun Essentials

Żejtun, one of Malta's oldest towns, is defined by its agricultural heritage and Baroque architecture. This collection highlights the monumental Parish Church of St. Catherine and the rare muxrabija stone window. It includes historical landmarks like the British-era Luqa Briffa garden, the archaeological remains of Hal-Ginwi, and a series of rural chapels such as the 17th-century Madonna tal-Ħniena. These sites offer a focused look at the town’s evolution from a Roman settlement to a fortified medieval and Baroque center.
