Tour description

Mysterium Fidei Monastery & Secret Garden in Valletta is a tour in Valletta. Mysterium Fidei Monastery & Secret Garden in Valletta has a rating of 4.78/5.00.

Only recently opened to the public, Mysterium Fidei is ‘hidden’ away on a quiet corner on St Christopher Street and Strait Street.

Visitors often stumble upon our door whilst exploring Valletta.

Often, simply curious to see what lies behind the walls of the Monastery, visitors are then immersed into the fascinating history whilst appreciating the architecture and experiencing the quiet serenity of the cloisters. Visitors can see how the nuns lived, in a totally authentic setting.

Cloistered nuns lived a life closed off from the outside world so they had to be self sufficient. Even until today the chickens lay eggs and fruit and vegetables are grown in the garden.

Built with self sustainability in mind there are seven wells dotted around the monastery. Rainwater is collected from the roofs.

Mimi the monastery cat, often welcomes visitors personally and happily walks around listening to the audio tour before finding a sunny spot in the garden providing a popular photo opportunity.
