      Saluting Battery

      Malta FEAQ 2022-1

      The Valletta Saluting Battery is a historic artillery battery located in Valletta, the capital city of Malta. Built in the 16th century, the battery was originally used to provide a ceremonial salute to visiting ships, as well as to defend the city from naval attacks.

      Today, the Saluting Battery is a popular tourist attraction, offering visitors the chance to witness a traditional salute ceremony performed daily at noon. During the ceremony, uniformed gunners fire the battery's cannons in unison, creating a loud boom that echoes across the Grand Harbour.

      In addition to the daily salute ceremony, the Saluting Battery also offers guided tours and exhibits on the history of the site, including its role in the defense of Malta during World War II. Visitors can explore the battery's network of tunnels and chambers, which were used to store ammunition and house soldiers during times of conflict.

      The Valletta Saluting Battery provides a unique opportunity to experience Malta's rich military history and to witness a centuries-old tradition that continues to this day. With its stunning views of the Grand Harbour and its impressive displays of military power, the battery is a must-see attraction for visitors to Valletta.
