Dar Saura
Saura Hospital in Rabat was founded in 1667 by Dr Nicholas Saura who left all his and his daughter’s wealth for the building of the hospital. Further funds were provided by Rev M Azzopardi in 1762 and donations and bequests were also given by other individuals. Regulations for running the hospice were established by Bishop M G Molina in 1680.
The home is located in a zone of archaeological importance of Rabat and Mdina and lies within the buffer zone of several structural remains dating back to the Roman period.
The hospice served the sick and the elderly and was entrusted to the Sisters of Charity between 1871 and 2003. Saura Home then continued to operate as one of the homes for the elderly under the Archdiocese of Malta and now employs 57 individuals.
