Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Also known by the name Città Vittoriosa, Birgu is the oldest of Eastern Malta's three fortified cities. It's located right in the Grand Harbor, and because of this has a rich maritime and military history. The city is surrounded by fortified walls, but can be entered through three different gates. Historical attractions here include the Notre Dame Gate, Fort St. Angelo, and the Inquisitor's Palace, which was the seat of the Inquisition on the island for more than 200 years. There are also several worthwhile museums, including the Malta Maritime Museum and the Malta at War Museum.
