Description
- Published in the Maltese language to celebrate the 150th anniversary from the official opening and blessing of the cemetery, this book gives a detailed and informative documentation of the cemetery’s history since its inception, covering the architectural features from the neo-gothic chapel, the mortuary and its finely decorated artistic monuments, the numerous personalities interred within, the serene symmetric garden-like ambience with its religious aspect, as well as its administration and restorations. It also illustrates a large number of full colour, some even never-before-seen photos, making it a unique pictorial documentation of the cemetery.
