Mosta Dome

While the villages of Malta each have numerous churches, most have one big church that is can be easily distinguished among the houses and countryside. Mosta's church is especially notable for its grandeur. The outside is surrounded by prominent figures of the faith. Saint Simon holding a saw. According to tradition, he was sawed in two. O death, where is your sting!
During WWII a bomb dropped from a plane pierced the dome. Astonishingly, it was a dud. O God we praise you that you are our Protector! Posted by Picasa
