Fgura is a small town in Malta, on the island of Malta. It is one of the 68 local councils. It was started recently on the outskirts of the Great Harbour area and is one of the fastest-growing towns of Malta. Fgura has grown to become one of the foremost commercial areas in the central-southern part of the island. The coat-of-arms of Fgura is made up of a red horizontal stripe containing three golden 5-pointed stars, centred across a white background. The patron saint of Fgura is Our Lady of Mount Carmel and an annual feast in her honour is celebrated on the second Sunday of July.
Fgura also has one of the most peculiar shaped churches in Malta. A picture can be found here : http://www.fguraparish.org/pages/ritratti.html
