Abstract:	Il-Via Sagra fil-knisja parrokkjali tan-Naxxar hija meqjusa bħala waħda mill-isbaħ u forsi l-aqwa f’Malta. Din l-opra artistika u ta’ qima, magħmula minn 14-il kwadru, bdiet fuq inizjattiva tal-Kappillan Dun Ġorġ Fiteni li talab għall-installazzjoni tagħha fil-bidu ta’ Ottubru 1776, u twaqqfet fl-1 ta' Diċembru tal-istess sena. Id-disinn tal-Via Crucis sar minn Antonio Cachia fi Frar 1779 , l-iskultura saret minn Antonio Fabri, u x-xogħol tal-injam sar minn Mastru Ġużeppi Pullicino. Il-kwadri kienu mpittra minn diversi artisti. L-opra tal-Via Crucis tlestiet fi żmien tlettax-il sena, għalkemm il-biċċa l-kbira tax-xogħol sar bejn l-1778 u l-1783.
