House of Character, Vittoriosa

Birgu is the oldest of the three cities that include Senglea & Cospicua and is a beautiful and peaceful town in the South of Malta, which also boasts a rich and vibrant history. Situated on the south side of Grand Harbour, this old fortified city is also known as Citta Vittoriosa as a reminder of Malta's successfully defending the city against the Ottoman siege in the 16th century. Although Birgu is a quiet and peaceful city, there is also lots to see and do here. Birgu is developing into a high profile historical showcase of Maltese tradition with its medieval nostalgia reflected in its alleyways, winding streets and converted townhouses. You can visit Malta's largest museum, the Maritime War Museum and also the Malta at War Museum in Birgu. This is a city at the very center of Maltese and Mediterranean history starting from the ancient times of the Phoenicians, Greeks, and Romans, right through to the Byzantines, Arabs, Normans, and up to the age of Napoleon and modern times. While walking the streets of Birgu you will also discover the beautiful architecture this city has to offer. Birgu also enjoys a picturesque waterfront boasting beautiful yachts and restaurants offering superb food and drink such as the Don Berto or the Del Borgo as well as a beautiful seaside promenade.
