Valletta: Between Faith, Power And Everyday Life

Discover the city of the Knights through its streets, churches, architecture, and the stories of those who inhabited it.

ABOUT THIS EXPERIENCE

Valletta is an open-air museum, where its streets, churches, monuments and houses preserve stories from different eras. Each place brings us closer to the people who lived here and the beliefs that were part of their daily lives.

Throughout the tour we will discover how faith and devotion gave rise to stories of miracles, promises, and thanks. In some cases, these promises and expressions of gratitude left a mark on the city, leading to the construction of churches, monasteries, chapels, monuments, and other spaces of prayer. Some of these places continue to be visited by those who come to ask for help, give thanks, or fulfill a promise.

An experience to discover Valletta through its stones, its stories and the faith of those who have inhabited it and keep these traditions alive.

WHAT WILL YOU DISCOVER?

Along the way you will discover:

• The stories of Knights, religious and inhabitants who gave life to Valletta.
• The meaning of balconies, stairs, gates, sculptures and other details that we find along the way.
