The first building stone of today’s Parish Church, dedicated to Our Lady of Annunciation, was laid in 1669. Architectural plans for this church, in the shape of a Latin Cross, began in 1665. In this church many artistic treasures are found, works by famous painters such as Giuseppe Calleja, Chev. Emvin Cremona and Paul Camilleri Cauchi. The titular statue is Salvu Dimech’s work, completed in 1898.
Good Shepherd Church
Pertaining to the sisters of the Good Shepherd convent, this chapel was built in 1898 after the Good Shepherd sisters decided to broaden their work among the needy. Architect V. Busuttil built the chapel at his own expense. Other benefactors who helped the sisters throughout their history included Cardinal Ferrata and Queen
Elizabeth, who was still a princess when she visited the convent.
Church dedicated to the birth of St. Mary
Another church which is historically known to have existed at some time around 1575. However no other information is known about it, such as its exact position.
St. Anard's Church
This church is another of the three churches found in the street bearing the same name, i.e. Three Churches street.
However one cannot recognise it as an old church today, since it was converted into a house several years ago. It was built in 1575.
St. Roque's Church
This Church also found in Three Churches street, was built in 1593 after an outbreak of the plague in that same year. Victims were buried in the church. The main painting shows St. Roque, St. Paul and St. Sebastian, all protectors of the plague.
