Go Mobile is continually contributing to national heritage and has just sponsored the restoration of the Baroque 18th century chapel of St Roque in the main street of Mdina.

The project is being carried out by the Mdina Rehabilitation Project (MRP) within the Ministry for Resources and Infrastructure. The work is being done by the Restoration Unit under the guidance of architect Hermann Bonnici.

St Roque replaced an earlier chapel located in the entrance to the city, which had been demolished. The chapel, which belongs to the Cathedral Chapter, will eventually be open to the public. The project has started with the restoration of the façade and roof, and will continue with the interior.

Speaking on the architectural importance of the chapel, Professor Denis de Lucca, chairman of the Mdina Rehabilitation Committee, said: "St Roque chapel contains very important baroque features and is a unique masterpiece. We thank Go Mobile for taking up this initiative. We hope that this serves as an example to other firms to invest in the country's heritage."
