O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Tokom velike opsade 1565. godine, navodno se čudotvorno raspelo u crkvi oznojilo, što je dalo nadu braniocima Malte. Crkva je služila kao glavna crkva Reda svetog Ivana 41 godinu prije nego što je dovršena katedrala Svetog Ivana.
Istaknuto: U kripti ispod crkve nalaze se jedne od najbolje očuvanih orgulja iz 1600-ih u Europi, s originalnim cijevima i mehanikom koja još uvijek radi. Svake nedjelje možete čuti dubok, topao zvuk kako ispunjava zasvođene kamene zidove, isto kao što je to činio više od 350 godina.
Insajderski savjeti
- Sit in the back pew for 5 minutes after arriving to experience the special acoustics and silence.
- Combine the visit with Inquisitor's Palace 100 meters away and Fort St. Angelo on the headland for a complete day in Vittoriosa.
- Ask the church warden if the crypt is open. Many visitors miss the 17th-century organ down there.
- Bring a flashlight to better see the details of Mattia Preti's painting, especially on overcast days.
