St Paul’s Catacombs are one of the most important archaeological attractions in Rabat and are located within walking distance of Point De Vue. This underground site gives visitors a fascinating look at Malta’s early Christian burial traditions and the island’s ancient communities.
For guests interested in history, archaeology and early Christianity, the catacombs are a strong addition to a visit to Mdina and Rabat. The site is especially useful for travellers who want to go beyond the main streets and experience Malta’s underground heritage.
St Paul’s Catacombs served as a burial complex during the Punic, Roman and Byzantine periods. They are among the earliest and largest archaeological signs of Christianity in Malta and are closely connected with Rabat’s religious heritage.
