HomePilgrimagesMalta — Where Paul Was Shipwrecked
Overview

A pilgrimage to the island where St. Paul was shipwrecked in 60 AD — visiting St. Paul's Bay, the Grotto of St. Paul in Rabat, the Co-Cathedral of St. John in Valletta, and the ancient megalithic temples.

Reflection
Malta is one of the most underrated pilgrimage destinations in the world. The Maltese have been Christian since Paul himself was shipwrecked on their shore and healed the father of Publius — and they have not forgotten it. The Co-Cathedral of St. John in Valletta is one of the most breathtaking interiors in Christendom. Every inch of the floor is a tombstone. Every chapel is a masterpiece.
