MARIA BAMBINA CHURCH
Maria Bambina, celebrated on September 8, is officially known as the collegiate church of Notre-Dame-des-Victoires. Originally built in 1743, it was completely destroyed in 1941, the victim of a bombing raid intended to hit nearby Dockyard Creek. Rebuilt after the Second World War, the church is Baroque in style, with a frescoed dome and dark green marble pillars. In a small room behind the altar, the Maltese often gather before a statue of Christ carrying his cross, considered miraculous. John Paul II visited this church in 1990.
