National Museum of Archaeology

Why go

Small sculptures and decorated stonework turn the temple period into more than a sequence of old walls. The collection includes the Sleeping Lady from the Hypogeum and material from Malta's prehistoric sanctuaries. The Auberge de Provence adds its own layer: the building was designed for the Knights by Girolamo Cassar.

What to look for

• The Sleeping Lady figurine
• Temple-period stone decoration
• The Auberge de Provence setting

Useful to know

• Visit before Tarxien or the southern temple complexes to recognise their original decoration.
• Pair the collection with MUŻA for a separate view of Maltese art.
