Sanctuary of Our Lady of Tal-Ħerba

Birkirkara, Malta

The Sanctuary of Our Lady of Tal-Ħerba (Maltese: Santwarju tal-Madonna tal-Ħerba) is a Roman Catholic church in Birkirkara, Malta, dedicated to the Nativity of Mary. It was constructed at various stages between the early 17th century and the 1920s, on the site of an earlier church which had existed since at least 1575. Pope Pius X granted a Pontifical decree of coronation to the venerated Marian image on 13 February 1910 signed via Cardinal Mariano Rampolla y Tindaro, and notarized by Cardinal Angelo di Pietro. The rite of coronation was executed by Archbishop of Rhodes, Pietro Pace on August 7 of the same year.
