A brief history : -
Malta is steeped with a rich history spanning over the earliest days of civilization up to the present times. Before it's Independence in 1964, Malta was under British rule for over 160 years which is why the Maltese people embraced English as its second language. Two periods in Malta's history stand out from the rest are the Neolithic period and the period of the Knights of St. John.

A brief history : -
Malta is steeped with a rich history spanning over the earliest days of civilization up to the present times. Before it's Independence in 1964, Malta was under British rule for over 160 years which is why the Maltese people embraced English as its second language. Two periods in Malta's history stand out from the rest are the Neolithic period and the period of the Knights of St. John.


The Neolithic temples on Malta are about 1000 years older than the famous pyramids of Giza. The earliest temple is found in Ggantija in Gozo . It still remains a mystery how these enormous rocks were moved or even lifted 5000 or 6000 years ago.

After the Turks, under Suleiman the Magnificent ousted the Knights of St John out of Rhodes, the Knights needed a new homeland and, in 1530 moved to Malta to which they were given tenure by Emperor Charles V. The Turks, wanting to destroy the Order completely, and needing a base to attack Southern Europe, set out with a strong fleet to drive the Knights out of Malta.

This was known as the Great Seige of Malta in 1565. the Knights stood firm and finally won.Mdina, the once capital city of Malta was replaced by the still present capital-Valletta,by the Knights.

Napoleon then took over Malta in 1798 on his way to Egypt. A siege that did not see any bloodshed, and which lasted till the arrival of Nelson in 1800 who managed to drive the French garrison out of Malta and seek protection under the British Throne.

Religion : -

It is said that Malta has 360 churches and wayside chapels all over the island. It is hardly surprising that the Maltese are quite infamous for their religious devotion. Before the arrival of St Paul (believe to have been shipwrecked at St Pauls Bay) the local civilization's principal deity was the so-called "goddess of fertility".

The conversion of the Maltese people was not sudden or
by any way a simple process, as for a while paganism and
the Christian faith co-existed.

It was only on the arrival of The Knights that Christianity
flourished amongst the Maltese, when the largest number
of churches were built.

Special Events

March 29th - Apr.4th Holy Week
June - July Maltafest

Entertainment & Culture
The Maltese people enjoy a vast choice of facilities to spend their leisure time. Valletta is always the centre point for cultural activities including the recently opened St James Cavalier - a milestone for Maltese modern art and culture. The Manoel Theatre, one of the oldest in Europe, hosts many plays and orchestral arrangements with talent from all over the world.

For those who enjoy a little gambling, The Dragonara Casino and Oracle at the New Dolmen Hotel offer you a great evening.

Art exhibitions, museums and other regular shows are predominant at any time of the year all over the island. Many Night clubs, restaurant and bars all over the island (especially the Paceville area) have Rock, Jazz, Latin and classical bands playing Live Music.

MaLTa JazZ FeSTivAL (July 2008/9)

Individualism and jazz go hand in hand... we'd like to think that this year's festival enriches the jazz calendar with more of these qualities. We've always explored a variety of styles, emotions and continents in our efforts to satisfy the purist, the enthusiast and the newcomer alike.

“Excellent Value” We had a great time in Malta & Coral Court Mellieha. The Apartment had everything you needed for your stay with very nice and friendly housekeeper to ask any questions. Located at the top of the town but within easy reach of shops & bus route if you dont have a car. Although the apartment was located in a back street there was a sea view through the roof tops and there was a little noise in the morning from the local delivery lorries but this didn't bother us. Overal we were very pleased with the apartment 9/10 and great value for money. I'm sure we will be staying there again in the future.

“Good value” Well located - an easy walk to the cathedral and to the best restaurants in Mellieha. (Not so handy for the beach!) A spacious apartment with a balcony. Well worth the money.
