Additional Information

This very special tour takes you inside an exquisite Mdina palazzo to reveal strange stories from its fascinating past.

The evening will begin on the streets of Mdina before our small group enters the palazzo, where you’ll hear the legend of the French soldier who is said to have been thrown from its balcony by hordes of Maltese rebels.

You’ll be able to touch a piece of the True Cross, upon which Jesus Christ was crucified, as certified by the Pope and found in the palazzo’s private chapel.

You’ll also see how slaves were kept close to the mistress of the house, and learn why a terrible gambler, the son of a nun, had to shrink the palazzo in size.

The tour will eventually reach the palazzo’s roof which has a superb view of Mdina. Drinks will then be served either on the roof or in the drawing room.

This event is part of the Behind Closed Doors series by Dark Malta Tours, taking you into fascinating places to experience their dark histories.
