"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.

The project was unveiled on 10 September 2007 by the Prime Minister of Malta, Lawrence Gonzi. The project will cost at least €275 million.

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.
Malta Maritime Museum
The Malta Maritime Museum is housed within the Old Naval bakery in Vittoriosa, it drafts Malta’s maritime history which is tightly bound to Mediterranean Sea. It also illustrates the global nature of seafaring and its impact on society from July 1992. The museum houses numerous artefacts highlighting different epochs, shaping Maltese seafaring trough paint, charts, evidence and sea technology evolution. So it shows Malta’s maritime history from prehistory to the present day.
RNH Bighi
RNH Bighi, also known as Bighi Hospital, was a major naval hospital located in the small town of Kalkara on the island of Malta. It served the eastern Mediterranean in the 19th and 20th centuries and, in conjunction with the RN Memorial Hospital at Imtarfa, contributed to the nursing and medical care of casualties whenever hostilities occurred in the Mediterranean.
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.
Our Lady of Victories Parish Church
Our Lady of Victories Parish Church is the parish church of Senglea, Malta. It is dedicated to the Nativity of the Virgin Mary, and was most probably built by architect Vittorio Cassar in 1580 as a monument to the Christian Victory after the Great Siege of 1565. Senglea became a parish in 1581, and was consecrated on 20 October 1743. On 21 May 1786, Pope Pius VI declared the church to be a "collegiata insignis", while in 1921, Pope Benedict XV honoured the church with the title of Basilica.
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.
