Built by the Knights of St. John following their victory over the Ottoman Turks in the Great Siege of Malta in 1565, St. John’s Co-Cathedral (Kon-Katidral ta’ San Gwann) stands as a testament to both history and artistry. Located in Valletta, its unassuming baroque facade belies the opulent interior, which is one of Europe’s most spectacular churches. Visitors can explore the richly decorated spaces, adorned with intricate carvings, gilded altars, and stunning works of art, making it a significant religious and cultural site in Malta.
