Hi 😊 here's my list of things to visit and see in Mdina.
All links in the titles will take you to the Google Maps location of highlighted place.
A historic house, some of which is at least from the 1300s. Hosted famous figures in Malta's history, but also very well curated. Full of lovely, interesting, and historic items collected by the previous eccentric nobleman.
I prefer this catacomb complex as there's a guided tour. The guided tour is around 20 minutes, and makes the experience much more understandable and pleasant.
Has catacombs, WW2 shelters, and an extensive museum. Most importantly has the Cave of St Paul. An important Christian pilgrimage spot. When the Popes visit Malta this is a must-see.
The biggest Catacombs (Roman-era tombs from around 200CE-400CE) complex in Malta.
Has catacombs with Jewish Menorahs which are super rare.
A little tip: before you descend into the catacomb, look at the sign near the entrance and see if there's anything interesting. If you decide to enter the catacomb, take a photo of the sign and use that as a map to find the interesting items.
