Nadur Parish Church
About This Museum
What really grabs you first isn't just the size of this church, but its incredible hilltop position—it feels like a fortress of faith watching over all of Gozo. Stepping inside, the sheer scale is breathtaking, with a magnificent dome that seems to pull your gaze straight up to the heavens. The interior is a treasure chest of religious art, from intricate marble work to vivid paintings that tell ancient stories. It’s surprisingly peaceful, a place where you can sit for a while and just absorb the quiet grandeur. You leave feeling like you’ve discovered the island's spiritual heart.
Collection Highlights
