Plans to build this Christian church were made on November 21, 1618, when Giovanni Cassar left a piece of land in his will which was to be used to build a church dedicated to the Holy Spirit.

Nonetheless, between 1788 and 1798 the church was extensively restructured, which gave it the form in which it is today.

Prior to this restructuring, the church's facade was where today's back side is and vice versa.

[1] The painting above the high altar, dating from either the 17th or 18th century depicts the descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles on Pentecost.

Above the altar is a statue of the Virgin of the Pillar the work of Marjamu Gerada.
