Here is where Saint Paul took refuge
The villages of Mdina and Rabat were constructed on an ancient Roman city. These catacombs of Rabat were used in Roman times to bury the dead. Now they are in the care of Heritage Malta. Christianity arrived in Malta from the hands of Paul around the year 60DC. St. Paul was on his way to Rome on a boat but it sank and ended up in Malta. According to tradition, the Apostle Paul took refuge in a cave, now known as the Catacombs of St. Paul.
