Siġġiewi (pronounced ‘sidge-jee-we’) offers a charming blend of traditional charm and natural beauty. Once known as Città Ferdinand, a name coined by Grand Master Von Hompesch, the village core has retained plenty of Maltese character and is especially noteworthy for its striking Baroque church, positioned in a sloping piazza that flows into winding lanes, where charming Maltese townhouses and houses of character beckon at every turn.

While the village core is a delight to explore, it is the surrounding countryside that truly enchants. Flanked by the verdant valleys of Wied il-Ħesri and Wied Xkora, Siġġiewi boasts lush landscapes that are rare on the island. Hiking enthusiasts can enjoy scenic routes from the unspoiled pastures of Tal-Fawwara to the serene woodlands of Buskett Gardens, making it an ideal destination for nature lovers and those seeking a peaceful escape.
