Our Saviour's Church, Lija, Baroque parish church in Lija, Malta.
Our Saviour's Church features a design with Tuscan and Doric architectural elements, flanked by two bell towers adorning its symmetrical facade.
The cornerstone for this church was placed in 1694 by Bishop Davide Cocco Palmieri, with construction lasting until its completion in 1782.
