While it's a good idea to once in a while allow free visits to Museums, it was a poor choice to have this day on 15th August when most of Malta is celebrating.
Why not on a Saturday when most people might be available to visit the Museums?
Most Gozo Museums will be open while next door there's the feast of the Assumption at the Cathedral. A very poor decision indeed.
