Basilica of St. Peter and St. Paul, Nadur

The symmetrical Renaissance facade of the church features twin bell towers, ornate stone carvings, and a central dome rising above the structure.

Construction of the basilica began in 1760 under architect Giuseppe Bonici, with final completion achieved in 1867 after more than a century of work.

The ceiling paintings by Maltese artist Lazzaro Pisani depict important moments from the lives of Saints Peter and Paul through detailed religious scenes.
