Plague epidemics in Malta information


Hearse used to carry the dead during the 1813 plague epidemic, now at the Żabbar Sanctuary Museum[1]

Several epidemics from the plague struck Malta from the medieval era until 1945, claiming almost 20,000 victims in at least ten epidemics over 350 years. After the first epidemics, preventive measures were installed, including a very active lazaret which issued patents of non-contagion for many ships plying the Mediterranean.
