Fort Saint Michael
Fort St Michael was a fortification on the island of Malta. A fort of that name was built by the Knights of Malta between 1551 and 1565 on the peninsula then known as Isla St Michael formed by Dockyard Creek and French Creek in Grand Harbour. This area is still known as L-Isla, but is now occupied by the fortified city of Senglea.
Fort St. Rocco
Fort St Rocco, also known as Fort St Roca on some maps, is a fortification on the island of Malta. It stands east of the Rinella Battery and seaward of the village of Santu Rokku, and forms part of the complex of shore batteries defending the coast east of the mouth of Grand Harbour.
Three Cities
The Three Cities is a collective description of the three fortified cities of Cospicua, Vittoriosa, and Senglea on the Island of Malta, which are enclosed by the massive line of fortification created by the Knights of St John, the Cottonera Lines. "Cottonera" is usually taken to include these Three Cities and Kalkara.
Cottonera Lines
The Cottonera Lines are a massive line of fortifications surrounding the Three Cities of Vittoriosa, Senglea, and Cospicua, in Malta. They are entirely built on four of the Bormla (Cospicua) hills. Grand Master Cottoner is still inked to Bormla with his surname's coat-of-arms now depicted in the emblem of the Bormla Local Council. They were designed by Italian engineer Antonio Maurizio Valperga in the 17th Century, and named after Grand Master Nicolau Cotoner.
SmartCity Malta
SmartCity is a technology park under development in Kalkara, Malta. The plan is to transform the Ricasoli Industrial Estate into a state-of-the-art information technology and media city on the models of Dubai Internet City and Dubai Media City. The project was unveiled on 10 September 2007 by the Prime Minister of Malta, Lawrence Gonzi. The project will cost at least €275 million.
Inquisitor's Palace
Not to be confused with the Palace of the Holy Office in the Vatican. The Inquisitor's Palace is a museum sited in the heart of Birgu, Vittoriosa, Malta. The palace was erected as the civil law courts of the Order of St John between 1530s and 1571 then became the inquisitor’s residence from 1574 until 1798. The Inquisitor’s Palace is now the "flagship" of Maltese Ethnography.
Della Grazie Battery
Della Grazie Battery is a fortification by the British on the island of Malta. It stands above the shore to the east of Grand Harbour, close to the present day town of Xghajra. Construction started in 1888 and was completed in March 1893. The battery was constructed to take advantage of the improved breech loading guns then coming into service. It was equipped with two 6 inc and two 10 inch breech loading guns in disappearing mounts.
St. Lawrence's Church, Vittoriosa
St. Lawrence's Church is an old Church situated in Birgu in Malta. In the 'Rollo' (inventory) of the benefices of the churches and chapels in Malta and Gozo, held by Bishop de Mello in 1436, ten established chapels are mentioned, amongst which the Church of San Lorenzo a Mare. When the Order of Saint John first settled in Malta in 1530, all of their langues were based in Birgu, so the Church of Saint Laurence was used as the Order's first Conventual Church in Malta.
