1 review of Birgu

Former capital of the Knights

Ancienne capitale des Chevaliers

Excellent
Birgu est aussi appelée "Vittoriosa", la Victorieuse, cité qui triompha des Ottomans lors du grand Siège de 1565. Tandis que les fonds européens servent à restaurer le Fort Saint-Ange, l'ancienne capitale des Chevaliers a beaucoup à offrir aux visiteurs à l'intérieur des ses murailles rénovées. Atmosphère typique de ce promontoire habité aux ruelles en pente. Birgu appartient à ses habitants qui n'ont pas vendu leur âme au dieu tourisme (aucune boutique de souvenirs, encore). Néanmoins, le Palais de l'Inquisition ouvre les portes de son musée et les anciennes "auberges de langue" montrent leurs façades historiques : une bien belle balade dans l'Histoire.

While the Europeans funds are used to restore the Fort St. Angelo, the ancient capital of the Knights has much to offer visitors the inside rnoves of its walls. Typical atmosphere of this promontory dress with steep streets. Birgu up its inhabitants who have not sold me their god tourism (no gift shop, yet). Nevertheless, the Palace of the Inquisition opens the doors of his muse and the old "language hostels" show their historic facades: a nice walk in history.
