Call Directions Website

FPM is a Maltese organisation which aims to spread awareness of the island’s extensive heritage.

Fondazzjoni Patrimonju Malti (Maltese Heritage Foundation) was set up in January 1992. It is a non-profit making organisation with the aim of spreading awareness of the island’s extensive heritage locally and internationally, through museums, exhibitions and publications. Early on in the Foundation’s life it was decided that its aim would be best reached through the organisation of exhibitions of notable interest, with objets d’art from private collections that have never been previously viewed publicly. This is where Patrimonju's forte lies, in its ability to bring together these hidden treasures, staging them professionally in sumptuous surroundings, and making them accessible to the viewing public. Patrimonju has already earned an enviable reputation for the spectacular exhibitions it has already organised in its relatively short existence.
