List of Maltese Catholic saints
The Catholic Church recognizes some deceased Catholics as saints, blesseds, venerables, and Servants of God. Some of these people have been associated with the nation of Malta. There are only two dioceses in the island group of Malta, and these are the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Malta and its suffragan diocese, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Gozo. The first Maltese saint in the history of Malta is Saint Publius, who died around the year 112 A.D.
