Malta’s capital is often called an open-air museum, with historical treasures on every corner of its compact streets.
On this self-guided walking tour, you’ll discover how the Knights of St. John transformed a barren peninsula into one of Europe’s most formidable fortress cities. You’ll also encounter magnificent palaces, baroque churches, and panoramic viewpoints that reveal the city’s strategic importance across centuries.
This tour starts at the iconic Triton Fountain just outside the city’s main gate. You’ll walk through the imposing entrance and along Republic Street, passing Renzo Piano’s striking Parliament Building. Along the way, you’ll discover the opulent St. John’s Co-Cathedral with its Caravaggio masterpiece, explore the Grand Master’s Palace where Malta’s rulers held court, and learn how the Knights shaped every aspect of the city from its defensive bastions to its hospitals.
