Heritage Malta opening the prehistoric Ta’ Ħaġrat and Skorba sites as part of this Sunday’s Festa Frawli
Not an opportunity to be missed.
On Sunday 16th April, during Mgarr’s annual Festa Frawli, Heritage Malta is set to open two prehistoric gems, Hagrat and Skorba at a reduced price.
Ta’ Hagrat was first excavated between 1923 and 1926 and includes two well-preserved structures dating back to the fourth millennium BC. The older structure has a monumental doorway that leads into a rectangular space with a raised stone kerb.
Today is World Tourism Day. Why not celebrate it with a visit to #Ta’Ħaġrat and #Skorba and enjoy their surrounding nature? We are open daily except on Mondays between 9:00am and 16:30.

During this event, Ta’ Ħaġrat will be open at 9am, with the last entries being at 5:30pm. Guided tours will take place every hour, starting at 9:30am with the last tour starting at 2:30pm. Tours will be in Maltese and English alternately, starting in Maltese.
Skorba, on the other hand, was excavated in the early 1960s. This excavation provided crucial evidence concerning the domestic aspect of the Neolithic inhabitants since the remains of several domestic huts were discovered here.
Kindly note that we will be closed on the 24th, 25th and 31st of December 2022 and the 1st of January 2023. We are here to welcome you on other days from Tuesday to Sunday throughout the festive season.
