The Mdina Experience
Malta
History and Culture
A fitting and engaging audio-visual show walking you through the incredible history of this beautiful medieval city. The Mdina square and building within which it is housed is an attraction in itself.
Malta has a rich and complex history. Mdina, the island's medieval capital, was at the centre of the ensuing tragedy and triumph experienced by the people through the ages. The Mdina Experience does a fantastic job of portraying the history behind this captivating city in an interesting and gripping manner. It is the answer to the frequent murmured phrase around its meandering streets 'if only these walls could talk'.
From prehistoric times and the cult of the mother goddess, to the shipwreck of St. Paul and the start of Christianity in Malta, to the earthquake that half destroyed the city and its subsequent splendid rebuilding, to the powerful story of the Knights of St. John. It is all narrated in a vivid and fascinating style.
The actual theatre has been recently refurbished to the highest standards and is housed within a medieval building with period architecture and boasts modern theatre technology with multi-controlled high resolution digital projection systems. State-of-the-art sound and lighting technology give the 30 minute show a definite two thumbs up. The multi-language soundtrack is available in thirteen different languages through the use of headsets.
Opening times: 10.00hrs to 16.30hrs daily. Available in 13 languages.
Please ask for the discounted block offer to also visit the Knights of Malta attraction located in Mdina too.
