The buildings and views are superb and make this place well worth the visit. Plenty of walking and steps to negotiate. Not suitable unless you are reasonably fit . The projected video 1 ( very short ) in my view is extremely poor . When you consider the extreme historical importance of this site. Again in the 2nd world war display a fairly small room with very poor exhibits inside has a television in each corner blaring away and I found trying to listen to any single television impossible because of the disruptive noise from the other three. I truly think this an abusive and shameful way of trying to educate people about such a wonderful historical site. An embarrassment to Maltese people. I have seen children's depictions of historical events far superior to this rubbish.

The people I found at the tickets counter were very friendly and available. The museum inside is extensive and develops in 7 or 8 different buildings (they're numbered), each one focuses on a time period. Very informative and well displayed. Here and there you can find real size artillery and planes parts to go alongside the explanations. Lovely! In the last building there is an immersive experience, my first time and it's genius! Definitely recommend it!

I saw this place on my last morning here before flying later in the afternoon, and I'm glad I did that. It's a beautiful fortress and has a museum, you'll know the entire history of Malta in the place. Also, many cannons. And a great view over Valetta old town and the sea. It's a must see if you're there.

This Fort is built on the end of the promontory on which Valetta stands. It's an historic site because it's where the original fort stood that resisted but fell to the onslaught of the Ottoman siege of Malta in 1565. It's now a museum of Malta through the ages and offers some great views of Grand Harbour.

Definitely worth a visit!!! Entrance is €10 but it's too few depending on what you see! The museum opened in 2015 and there are still a lot of things to prepare and many more rooms and places to open, but if you visit Malta you must go to see it!! We spent more than 2 hours seeing everything.

For 10 euros this is a great place to read all about Maltas history, from the Ottermans to the French and English. There is alot of information to take in. Not ideal for small children. The rooms you visit all have air con, so on a hot day is a great way to learn and keep cool.
