About this cemetery
Ta' Braxia Cemetery was built between 1855 and 1857 as a multi-denomination burial ground, primarily intended for British servicemen. It incorporates a Jewish cemetery established around 1830. The site is a civil burial ground on the south-eastern side of Pietà Military Cemetery, and its construction was controversial with the local ecclesiastical authorities.
