Magħtab

Magħtab is a village in Naxxar, Malta.^[1]^[2] Magħtab is mostly known for Malta's largest landfill. Since Malta joined the EU in 2004, the landfill has been closed.^[3] Rehabilitation of the closed landfill is in progress.^[4]

The Il-Widna acoustic mirror is located 1,410 metres (1,540 yd). The hill of Ġebel San Pietru is also located within the confines of Magħtab.

In December 2021, residents noticed new excavated rock and construction waste, forming a new 'waste mountain'.^[5]
