First crib in Malta nearly 400 years ago



The first crib known to have been built in Malta dates back to the year 1617 and was exhibited in the Domenican Friars Church in Rabat. In St Peters Monastery in Mdina, one can still find a crib dating back to 1670. This is treasured by the Benedictine Sisters who live in the monastery.
