All women visiting Heritage Malta sites and museums on Domenica 7 Marzo, the eve of International Women’s Day, will be given a free souvenir as a token of appreciation. On Venerdì 19 Marzo, which is a public holiday celebrating the feast of St Joseph, Heritage Malta will give access to all sites normally open on Fridays while also treating visitors to the special opening of the Abbatija tad-Dejr in Rabat.

For an admission fee of just €2, members of the public will have the opportunity to visit this historical gem, usually kept closed, between 10am and 4.30pm. Another special opening will happen on Mercoledì 31st Marzo, Freedom Day, when visitors will have access to Kordin Temples.
