The Apostolic Nunciature to Malta is the diplomatic mission of the Holy See to Malta. The nunciature is located at 20/22, Pietru Caxaru Street, Tal-Virtù, Rabat RBT 2604, Malta.[1] The Apostolic Nuncio to Malta is usually also the Apostolic Nuncio to Libya upon his appointment to said nation. The current Apostolic Nuncio is Archbishop Savio Hon Tai-fai.

The Apostolic Nunciature to Malta is an ecclesiastical office of the Catholic Church in Malta, with the rank of an embassy. The nuncio serves both as the ambassador of the Holy See to the Republic of Malta and as delegate and point-of-contact between the Catholic hierarchy in Malta and the Pope.

History

[edit]

The building of the Apostolic Nunciatur is found at Tal-Virtù in Rabat, Malta. The building’s final design was decided by architect Joseph M. Spiteri. It was the Catholic Curia which appointed Spiteri for the final revision to the plan of the building.[2]
