Parish Church of Our Lady of Sorrows

The Parish Church of Our Lady of Sorrows is a key landmark in St Paul’s Bay, blending historical significance with elegant architecture. Designed in the early 20th century by Emmanuele Galizia in a restrained Baroque style, it was financed by Countess Anna Bugeja and her husband, Marquis Vincenzo Bugeja. Originally built to serve a small community, the church was expanded and rededicated in 1979 to meet the needs of the town’s growing population.
