• Optional:

Enjoy a visit to "La Sacra Infermeria" (the Holy Infirmary of the Order of the Knights of St. John).

Malta’s Knights of St. John are famous for repelling an invasion and their military exploits abroad. But their origins were actually those of peace and caring for the sick. ''La Sacra Infermeria'' has seen over 400 years of vivid human history as generations of patients have passed through its doors. These ancient walls have witnessed triumph and tragedy, selfless care and unspeakable suffering, medical innovation, and sad decay. It’s as though the very fabric of the place is imbued with the ghosts of centuries. This noble past is revealed during the tour of “La Sacra Infermeria”.

The duration of the tour of "La Sacra Infermeria" is approximately 30 minutes.
