A must visit in Gozo. It is free to enter and walk around the perimeter wall which has spectacular 360 degree views of Gozo. There an entrance fee of 5euros per adult, children and students £4euros to enter the Cathedral which includes the museum. Be aware mid afternoon in July it is very, very hot with nest to no shade or breeze.

A labyrinthine old house in the fort, now signposted as "historic house". The upper floors mostly have exhibits of local arts and crafts (fishing and farming tools, textiles, musical instruments, hunting gear etc) while the lower floors are furnished to represent old bedrooms, a kitchen and so on. Admission is included in a 5 euro ticket that also covers four other little museums in the citadella.

Recommended visit to see a collection of items related to Gozitan history in terms of folklore, food, tools, furniture, and other antiquities. It is worth getting the ticket to visit the museums Gozo from Heritage Malta, as this is one of the spaces included.

A very interesting little place to visit. I was expecting more folklore than what was there as it was more of a local folk history museum, but it was fascinating all the same! Would definitely recommend a visit here.

We had a lovely day here, we paid for entry which gave you access to the 5 museums. They are all beautiful kept, the whole place is stunning and worth a visit even if you don’t go in the museums.

This was included in the very advantageous and recommended thirty day Heritage Malta Multisite Pass. There were some interesting exhibits but the multimedia video presentations were inaudible.
