Beautiful chapel set in a cave


This unique little chapel is situated in Wardija Ridge, between St Pauls and Mgarr.
It was shown to my parents by a lovely Maltese lady a number of years ago who used to frequent the chapel, sadly since she has passed away.
Unfortuately, I don't know any history or even the name of this quaint little church and only wish I could say more about it. One thing I was told, (and I have to say I don't know if it is the truth) is that the chapel was placed here for the local farmers. Set in the cave, the farmers would then only have a short distance to travel for daily prayers, during the height of there farming seasons.
If anyone can give me more of an incite, I would be very interested to know, especially why it is beautifully set in a cave.
