A SCENIC CAMPUS
Nestled at the foot of the Blue Mountain Range, the picturesque
Mona Campus is spread over some 653 acres, offering opportunities
for nature lovers and academics alike. The Campus is rich
in historical remains, the dominant feature being the century-old
aqueduct that served the former sugar estate. Tradition meets
modernity at every corner. An 18th century Chapel co-exists
with the contemporary elegance of the Main Library, while
the wooden frame buildings used previously to house refugees
and prisoners of war from Malta and Gibraltar during the Second
World War are a quaint and lasting testimony to our beginnings.
