Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Hypogeum of Ħal Saflieni (Maltese: Ipoġew ta' Ħal Saflieni; Maltese pronunciation: [safˈlɪː.nɪ]) is a Neolithic subterranean structure dating to the Saflieni phase (3300 – 3000 BC) in Maltese prehistory, located in Paola, Malta. It is often simply referred to as the Hypogeum (Maltese: Ipoġew), literally meaning "underground" in Greek. The Hypogeum is thought to have been a sanctuary and necropolis, with the estimated remains of more than 7,000 people documented by archeologists, and is among the best preserved examples of the Maltese temple building culture that also produced the Megalithic Temples and Xagħra Stone Circle.

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Das Hypogäum von Ħal-Saflieni ist eine im Neolithikum, zwischen 3800 und 2500 v. Chr., auf Malta genutzte unterirdische Anlage, die wohl für die Bestattung der Toten und als Heiligtum diente.

Summary from Español / Spanish Wikipedia (eswiki)

El Hipogeo de Hal Saflieni es el único templo subterráneo prehistórico conocido; fue excavado hacia el 2500 a. C. Se considera que su primera función fue la de santuario y que ulteriormente, pero aún en tiempos prehistóricos, se convirtió en una necrópolis. Está situado en extremo del municipio de Paola, en el sureste de la isla de Malta. Fue declarado Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco en 1980.[1]​

Summary from Italiano / Italian Wikipedia (itwiki)

L'ipogeo di Ħal-Saflieni (in maltese Ipoġew ta' Ħal Saflieni) è una struttura sotterranea scavata tra il 3600 a.C. circa e il 2500 a.C. a Paola, sull'isola di Malta. Si ritiene che in origine fosse un santuario, divenuto necropoli in tempi preistorici. È l'unico tempio preistorico sotterraneo al mondo. L'ipogeo venne impresso su 5000 francobolli da due centesimi delle isole di Malta nel 1980, per commemorare il fatto che l'UNESCO inserì questa struttura unica tra i patrimoni dell'umanità. Venne chiuso al pubblico tra il 1992 ed il 1996 per restauro.
