Xaghra Circle
Date Added: 26th Mar 2013
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Malta (Gozo)
Visited: Yes on 22nd Mar 2013. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 3 Access 4
Xaghra Circle submitted by enkidu41 on 5th May 2004. Also known as Brochtorff's Circle. The actual circle is about 120' in diameter. Only about 85' of the circumference still stands and is obscured by by soil pile up and thick vegetation. The rest of the circle is outlined by a modern wall. The feature shown here is the central excavation in which Herr Brochtorff supposedly found other megaliths including an altar-like structure. The remains are thought to be of a temple smaller than but similar to the nearby Ggantija temple.
