Old Church of St Sebastian, Qormi, Roman Catholic parish church in Qormi, Malta
The church stands as a religious building with a 19th-century painting of the Martyrdom of St Sebastian by artist Lazzaro Pisani at its altar.
The original chapel, documented in 1575 by inquisitor Pietro Dusina, developed into a larger structure built between 1880 and 1890 to serve the growing population.
The veneration of Saint Sebastian in Qormi intensified after the 1813 plague epidemic, leading to the erection of a commemorative statue in 1815.
Daily mass services occur at multiple times throughout the week, with additional services on Saturdays and Sundays to accommodate the local community.
After serving as the main parish church until the 1980s, the building underwent restoration in 2011 and now functions as an adoration chapel.
