dc.description.abstractMalta presents various cases of urban restructuring from different periods. A country with a strong Roman Catholic society, churches played an indispensable role in the formation of urban space. This paper analyses the works of two architects, one Italian and one Maltese, who remodelled the facades of existing churches: Romano Carapecchia (1668-1738), resident military engineer of the Order, restructured the church of St Catherine of Italy, Valletta in 1713, while Francesco Saverio Sciortino (1875-1958) remodelled the church of SS Peter and Paul at Nadur, Gozo (1907-15).en_GB
