Ħaġar Qim Temples
Discounts
50% Discount on Entrance Fee
The temple of Ħaġar Qim, excavated for the first time in 1839, dates to c. 3600 – 3200 BC. It stands on a hilltop overlooking the sea and the islet of Fifla. Just 500m away from Ħaġar Qim, further towards the cliff face, lies another remarkable temple site, Mnajdra set in a hollow above the Southern cliffs.
The surrounding area, which is typical of Mediterranean garigue and spectacular in its starkness and isolation, is designated a HeritagePark. Much of interest has been unearthed at Ħaġar Qim, notably a decorated pillar altar, two table-altars and some of the ‘fat lady’ statues on display in the National Museum of Archaeology, Valletta.

Hello, I would like to use my Malta discount card to book two tickets for next saturday to the Ħaġar Qim Temples, is it possible or do I need to go to the temples and buy from there?
Thanks
Hello Alejandro thank you for your comment. You can book tickets for the Hagar Qim temples with your Malta Discount Card directly from the Museum. Otherwise you can also contact the Museum directly on info@heritagemalta.org. Thank you
