圣母教堂印象
-
When in Rome…When in Mosta visit the RotundaCannot fail to impress even for the non religiousBeautiful Church,beautiful history
-
The architecture alone is worth the visit (I think the dome is the 2nd largest unsupported dome in the world). Its very highly decorated inside and has some amazing history..during WW2 a bomb fell through the roof during a service and slid up one of the aisles without exploding! The downside is that there are always people trying to sell you things.

The Mosta Dome is a really lovely church. The largest unsupported dome and one of the most interesting churches I have visited. There are lots of impressive and fine paintings and figurines and the story about the bomb that went right through the dome during Second World War is supported with a replica and further information in pictures. It is only open to the public until 12 noon, so visit early.

Hi guys i basically live in mosta. It s a nice church to visit and the only think worth viewing is the church. I find it very strange that i see lots of tourists coming over to see the inside of church and all they see closed doors. During siesta time church will be closed.

This church (rotunda) is serving a small town of around 20.000 people. It is hard to believe. It is really huge and impressive . The story of the German bomb that penetrated the roof but did not explode adds to the impression.

Yesterday I visited the church in Mosta called the Rotunda, which once you see it, makes perfect. It is just a short ride from Valletta central bus terminal.... ticket costs 1.50 euros for the whole day (!)... and stops directly in front of the church. Inside it is a beautiful church, full of mosaics, statues, and impressive religious symbolism. But the really interesting thing about the Rotunda is the miracle which happened there in April 1942,during an bombing run by the Luftwaffe. To find out more about this go to the small museum/ treasury on the left side of the main altar,... a small doorway, not requiring a ticket. There you will see a replica of the bomb which fell on the church, but didn't explode. The faithful of the church attribute it to intervention from the Blessed Virgin Mary. Go, read the reports.... decide for yourself. But don't try to convince the 300 worshipers who were inside the church when the bomb came through the roof that it was just a coincidence! Take your time and enjoy this beautiful "miraculous" church.

The size of the dome in itself is very impressive, it is also beautifully decorated. The story about the bomb piercing the dome is amazing, and is greatly illustrated by the replica that is housed inside the church. The church is very easy to access by bus, with a stop right outside that's served by several routes.Well worth a visit.

This is a wonderful building and in a great position. The architecture is amazing and it was well laid out. The pictures and decoration inside was outstanding and it had a very calming atmosphere inside.

This is an imposing, impressive building - one of the largest unsupported domes in the world, bigger than St. Paul's in London and Hagia Sofia in Istanbul, but smaller than the Duomo in Florence and St. Peter's in Rome. The miracle of the unexploded bomb is also an attraction; you can see a replica of the bomb in the sacristy next to the souvenir counter. For me, however, the magnificence of the paintings on display is what really makes this rotunda worth a visit. The acoustics are awful - do not attend a concert here; even the services are a jumble of words unless you are next to one of the speakers.Outside you are spoilt for choice with good coffee, excellent street food and various clothes shops. A new shop, 'Village Gourmet' has opened, selling oils on tap; very friendly and good quality. Parking can be a problem.Best tip - check opening times. This week it was 9:00-11:45 and 15:00-14:00. The website information says 9:00-11:00 and 15:00-17:00.

Worth making a detour to visit the church which has an impressive huge rotunda. There is a really good cake shop opposite!
