The Nibbia Chapel popularly known as the Chapel of Bones was built in 1612, by the knight Fra. G. Nibba and subsequently rebuilt in 1712.

The bones from the cemetery were artistically arranged by a chaplain in 1852.

It is said that several of the skeletons belong to Maltese insurgents executed by the French.

From the number of postcards printed on this macabre subject, one could see that this was a popular tourist attraction. However, this came to an end when in February 1941, this chapel together with the Nibbia church on top, and several other buildings in Valletta were destroyed by a multitude of bombs dropped by the luftwaffe.
