Overview
The name, 'Burmarrad' may refer to the village's proximity to the sea. It is generally accepted that the name, in old Maltese, refers to a settlement upon the marshes. The original word was " bur marradi", where the "bur" refers to a well, while "marradi" means sickly. Conjoined, this means that the water in the marshes was contaminated, hence bur marradi, and later Burmarrad. Burmarrad retains a number of farms, primarily centered on agriculture
The parish priest since 2016 is P. Christian Anthony Borg OFM.
This tiny village is home to the residence of Joseph Muscat, Prime Minister of Malta.
