Heritage Malta will open Tal-Mintna Catacombs while Din l-Art Ħelwa will open the chapel of the Annunciation at Ħal Millieri. Tal-Mintna Catacombs, managed by Heritage Malta, are a group of three small catacombs probably used around the 4th and 6th centuries AD. They remain among the best representations of rural catacombs in Malta. Most window tombs are decorated with carved pilasters and the conches of a few tombs contain some of the best preserved respresentations of the scallop shell motif; a symbol that was frequently used in Early Christian iconography. Tours will be given every 20 minutes. Due to lack of space, and even to ensure visitors enjoy a personalized tour of the site, a maximum of 10 persons will be accepted for each tour.
