Malta - Mosta Rotunda

On Location - Mosta Rotunda, Malta

Built between 1833 and the 1860s, the design of the church is based on the Pantheon in Rome, and at one point had the third largest unsupported dome in the world. The church narrowly avoided destruction during World War II, since on 9 April 1942 a German aerial bomb pierced the dome and fell into the church during Mass but failed to explode.
