Marsaskala - Chapel of San Nicholas

Two chapels dedicated to St Nicholas of Bari existed here till 1659, but in his pastoral visit of the same year, Bishop Balaguer had both of them closed as they were on the verge of collapsing. But a century later, the one still standing today known as Tas-Subricint, was rebuilt by John Baptist Azzopardi Barbara. The first stone was laid and blessed on July 10, 1759 by Rev.John Mary Azzopardi.
