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.
Grand Harbour
Grand Harbour is a natural harbour on the island of Malta. It has been used as a harbour since at least Phoenician times. The natural harbour has been greatly improved with extensive docks and wharves, and has been massively fortified.
Hibernians Ground
Hibernians Stadium is a multi-use stadium in Paola, Malta. The Hibernians football ground was inaugurated on 9 November 1986. Hibernians became the first Maltese club to have their own football pitch. Nonetheless, Hibernians play most of their league matches in the National Stadium in Ta' Qali, since nearly all the Maltese Premier League matches are played there. The ground is used by Hibernians for their everyday training sessions.
Upper Barrakka Gardens
The Upper Barrakka Gardens (Il-Barrakka ta' Fuq) are a public garden in Valletta, Malta. It is twinned with the Lower Barrakka Gardens in the same city, and offers a panoramic view of the Grand Harbour. One of Valletta's most beautiful parks, it was created in 1775 on the bastion of St. Peter and Paul. In the park there are several statues, including one from Sir Winston Churchill, and a sculpture by the Maltese sculptor Antonio Sciortino, entitled "The street boys.
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.
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.
Malta Stock Exchange
The Malta Stock Exchange (Borża ta' Malta in Maltese) is a small but active stock exchange based in Malta's capital, Valletta. It oversees the trading of a handful of important stocks and is the marketplace for Malta's bond market. The Exchange began operation in 1992. It has, for the past ten years, been the regulator of the local capital market. During this period the Exchange has sought to perform this duty to the best of its abilities but the time has now come to review the matter.
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.
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.
Lascaris Battery
The Lascaris Battery is an artillery battery in Malta. The installation is located on the east side of Valletta and is connected to the St. Peter's Bastion of the Valletta Land Front. Construction began in 1854 during the period of British rule; its use as Britain's headquarters for the defence of the island during World War II was a well kept secret.
