| Abstract: | Arguably one of the finest of Valletta's lesser known assets, the Church of Our Lady of the Pillar formed part of the adjoining Auberge of the Langue of Aragon, Catalonia and Navarre. It was first built during the early 1670s, a full century after the construction of the Auberge proper. The foundation stone was laid by Grand Master Nicholas Cotoner and its construction was financed mainly through the the generosity of Raimondo de Soler and Felice lnniges de Ayerba, Bailiffs of Majorca and Caspe respectively. |
