Magic Lantern slide circa 1900 hand coloured. Titled Cities and places of interest in the Mediterranean. 41—THE CHURCH OF ST. JOHN, VALETTA. This church, as its name indicates, owes its existence to the Knights of that name, who founded it on the Emperor Charles V. presenting them with the island on their expulsion from Rhodes. ''Mere for some time they worshipped, but gradually, as they died off, they ceased to be interred here in any large numbers, and the cathedral before mentioned is nowhiiore associated with their fame than this, their own church [. The edifice itself is plain and unornamental, both inside and out.
