The small village of Iż-Żebbuġ is on the island of Gozo in Malta. The word Żebbuġ means "olives", a crop for which the village used to be noted, although nowadays very few olive trees remain on the slopes of Żebbuġ. The village is also well-known for its fine lacework and for its nearby coastal beauty spots.
People have lived in and around Żebbuġ for many years - there are bronze age sites on nearby Kuljat hill, and to the north, close to the bay of Qbajjar are even older remains.
