Further on, Pjazza San Pawl, the city’s main square, is home to St Paul’s Cathedral, which is said to have been built on the site where Roman governor Publius met St Paul. Even non-religious visitors will find a sense of spirituality in its gilded altars, detailed frescoes and floors inlaid with marble tombstones honouring prominent locals. The adjacent Mdina Cathedral Museum features a rich collection of ecclesiastical artefacts, coins and even a set of woodcuts by German Renaissance painter Albrecht Dürer, donated to the collection by a 19th-century Maltese nobleman. The square is especially evocative at sunset, when the cathedral is bathed in orange light and the only sounds are the occasional church bell or horse-drawn carriage passing by, taking visitors on tours.
