Għasri

Għasri (Maltese: L-Għasri) is a village and an administrative unit of Malta, in the western part of the island of Gozo, with a population of 525 people (as of March 2014).

[1] By population, it is the smallest village in Gozo after San Lawrenz, and the third-smallest in the Maltese Islands, after Bidnija and Mdina.

On the way, there are a number of typical farmhouses, most of them available for short or long lets, as well as an old chapel dedicated to the Patronage of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

The village church, designed by a local priest, Dun Ġużepp Diacono, was built early in the twentieth century.

Its foundation stone was laid on 6 September 1903, and it was dedicated to the Corpus Christi, otherwise known as Christ the Saviour in the Eucharist on 9 January 1916.
