This 1987 photograph captures Saint Francis Square in Gozo, showcasing its characteristic charm. The central stone cross, a traditional focal point, stands prominently against a backdrop of weathered limestone buildings featuring balconies and shopfronts. A vintage car parked nearby reflects the era’s quiet pace of life, while subtle details, like the hand-painted shop signs, highlight the square’s role as a hub for local commerce and community gatherings.
