Mosta Rotunda

  Rotunda Square     more than a year ago
Do you want to see the third largest dome in the world? Here it is, in the central town of Mosta, an impressive structure that’s visible from numerous viewpoints in Malta. The inside of the dome—decorated in a beautiful blue, gold, and white colour scheme—is also worth experiencing. But the dome’s fame is not only due to its beauty and immensity. A 200kg bomb fell through it during an air raid in World War II. To the luck of the 300 people attending service that morning, the bomb didn’t explode. Phew! A replica of this menace now stands on display within the church.
