Dwejra Tower and Its Immediate Surroundings
2025-12-17 10:30 - 11:30 | Gozo Central Public Library, St Francis Square, Victoria, Gozo, VCT1335, Malta
‘Dwejra Tower and Its Immediate Surroundings’ – an illustrated talk and book launch with Maltese heritage and nature writer, Dr. Stanley Farrugia Randon.
Heritage and nature lovers are invited to learn more about the Dwejra Watch Tower which stands alone amidst the harsh, natural scenery of Gozo’s west coast. The building has a rich and fascinating history. Today, visitors can explore this fully restored heritage site, which dates from 1652.
The author’s new book focuses on the history of the knight’s era Dwejra Tower, which is inevitably linked with the history of the island of Gozo. In 1996 Din l-Art Ħelwa, Malta’s National Trust, took the tower under its care and the book describes the various restoration interventions carried out to date on this iconic Scheduled Grade 1 heritage site. The history of the tower is closely connected to the nearby Fungus Rock, and the author includes a detailed description examining its unique ecological importance. The book also describes the Dwejra Port, the Church of St Anne, the Blue Hole, the Crocodile Rock, the Inland Sea, the valleys, fish, birds and other fauna and endemic flora found in the area.
The Dwejra area attracts historians, geologists, paleontologists, ornithologists, marine biologists, astronomers, ecologists and archaeologists. It also offers an entertaining hub to locals and tourists alike who visit the area to bathe, snorkel, dive and walk. The author will also explain why we should be more sensitive in protecting the area and not allowing any illegal practices that potentially damage the surrounding flora and fauna, while still enjoying the spectacular views and the natural coastal habitats.
This book is twelfth title written by Stanley Farrugia Randon, a long-standing volunteer of Din l-Art Ħelwa.
The publication which is sponsored by VisitMalta https://www.visitmalta.com/en/ will make an ideal Christmas present or gift for anyone interested in Gozo’s rich history and precious natural environment.
Stanley Farrugia Randon is a Medical Doctor by profession, specialised in Family Medicine. He is author of 40 books on varied topics which include medical information, fishing, agriculture, bibliographies of various Maltese personalities, marine biodiversity, watchtowers, churches and heritage restoration. He is a member of various cultural and environmental organizations, particularly Din l-Art Ħelwa.
The talk will be given in English.

The Maltese Cinderella And Her Sisters
2025-12-19 08:30 - 20:00 | Xewkija Windmill, 8 Triq Il-Mitħna, Xewkija, Gozo, Malta
Starting from the fairytale il-Germudija, the Maltese Cinderella, once told by Marija of Xewkija to Veronica Veen, will be endeavoured to create your own, individual fairytale. This can go deeper than you would think. Besides, we should not forget that fairytales are a specific literary genre with its own background, demands, and layered symbolism.
This workshop will be held on the occasion and and at the venue of the exhibition The Maltese Cinderella and her Sisters, based on Veronica’s groundbreaking and award-winning book “The Maltese Cinderella and the women’s storytelling tradition.”
Completely different from the classical Cinderellas, this superb Gozitan variant features a heroine who is a self-conscious and energetic maid, who knowns without the usual ‘helping animals’ or godmother/fairy to ‘conquer’ the heart of a somewhat timid son of the rich household, so not a King or Prince. The story, with its independent and wise heroine-against-all-odds, still conveys a clear message for women today.
