Location
Xaghra is one of the most picturesque villages on the island of Gozo. Situated on the north east of the capital city of Victoria, on a stretch of high ground, this village has a population of about 4200 inhabitants. It is surrounded by the beautiful bays of Ramla, Ghajn Barrani and Marsalforn to the north and north-east while to the west and south lie the valleys of Ramla, Ta’ l-Ghejjun and Marsalforn and to the south spreads a plain of fertile land called Ta’ Hamet.

The table-land on which the town stands is composed of various slopes, as well as of valleys which are green all the year round, among them one finds the Eghzien Valley and Ghajn Xejba Valley, which lead into Marsalforn Valley, fruitful areas which are the source of the best agricultural products and grapes of the highest quality. Xaghra is certainly one of the spots in Gozo where there has been human habitation since extremely early times. Here one can find the Neolithic temples of Santa Verna, Ggantija, Ghejzu Cave, the Brockdorff or Stone Circle and Sansuna, in addition to others no less well known. The two Ggantija temples are acknowledged to be the oldest free-standing structures in the world..

On that edge of the village which overlooks Ramla Bay, one can find a cave which, according to legend, was the home of the nymph Calypso fame in Greek mythology. Yet other caves are renowned for the fantastic shapes of the stalagmites and stalactites found in them, formed over vast periods of time by the slow filtration of rain-water through the limestone which composes the table-land. The latter are called Xerri’s Grotto and Ninu’s Cave.
