Local Tip

The site is on private farmland and not easily accessible — view from the field boundary. It is for serious prehistory enthusiasts only.

BorÄ” l-Imramma is a ruined prehistoric temple site in the south of Gozo, now visible only as a scatter of large megalithic blocks in a field. The site was once a substantial temple complex but has been heavily degraded by centuries of agricultural activity and stone-robbing. What remains suggests a temple of the Tarxien phase (c.3000–2500 BC), though the site has not been fully excavated.

The site is of interest to prehistory enthusiasts but is not a managed visitor attraction. It is on private farmland and is best viewed from the field boundary. There is no signage or access path. Visit only as part of a wider exploration of Gozo's lesser-known prehistoric sites.
