Robert Sammut Hall, Gothic Revival church building in Floriana, Malta.

The Robert Sammut Hall exhibits pointed arches and ribbed vaults within its Neo-Gothic structure, designed by architect Thomas Mullet Ellis in Floriana.

Built between 1881 and 1883, this Methodist church served religious purposes until 1970, when it transferred to government ownership for cultural activities.

The building bears the name of Robert Sammut, the composer of Malta's national anthem, and functions as a center for local performances and events.

The hall contains a two-manual pneumatic Willis organ and includes a subterranean space known as Lamplough Hall for additional functions.

This structure marked a technological milestone as the first building in Malta to implement electric lighting through incandescent bulbs.
