In-Nadur lies on the easternmost hill of Gozo. It is an interesting traditional village and affords fabulous views over land and sea. It is reached either from ir-Rabat or directly from Mgarr Harbour. The baroque Parish Church dominates in-Nadur's skyline and is one of Gozo's best pieces of baroque architecture. The church is dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul and stands majestically in the sizeable village square opposite an old stone cross. The feast of Saints Peter and Paul, also called "L-Imnarja" is celebrated on the 29th of June, which is also a National holiday. The feast's name derives from luminaria (illumination), and is connected with the start of summer.
