Giorgio Grognet de Vassé, (1774 – 1862), was a Maltese architect who designed a massive church, the Rotunda of St Marija Assunta in Mosta, Malta. It has one of the largest unsupported domes in the world, with a diameter of 40m. Grongnet's plans were closely based on the Pantheon in Rome.
In 1854 he claimed that the Maltese Islands are the remnants of Atlantis.
