Abstract: The Basilica group is a well-known 2-generated weakly branch, but not branch, group acting on the binary rooted tree. Recently a more general form of the Basilica group has been investigated by Petschick and Rajeev, which is an $s$-generated weakly branch, but not branch, group that acts on the $m$-adic tree, for $s,m>1$. With the new developments by Francoeur, the study of the existence of maximal subgroups of infinite index has been extended from branch groups to weakly branch groups. Here we show that generalised Basilica groups have maximal subgroups only of finite index.
