Zebbug - Parish Church of St Philip

In the main square is the Parish Church of St Philip, begun in 1599. It was initially the work of Cassars, but Dingli finished it 60 years later. It is far more ornate than Cassar's most famous church, St John's Co-Cathedral, which was built more than 25 years earlier. The two towers seem squeezed together in the screen facade, isolating the twin domes either side. For a lavish interior, study the north and south transepts and the coffered semi-circular vault.
