Birgu Bell Tower

Bedste tid at besøge

Early evening before sunset gives the most beautiful light over the harbor and shadow play against the limestone walls. Avoid midday in summer when the sun burns the worst.

Budgettips

The viewing area around the tower is freely accessible around the clock. A guided tour inside the tower costs around 5 euros and includes access to the bell chamber.

Om

Hurtige fakta: Klokketårnet rager 50 meter over Vittoriosas havnefront og er et af Maltas højeste fritstående klokketårne. De 8 bronzeklokker blev støbt i Italien og vejer tilsammen over 6 ton.

Højdepunkter: På skyfri dage kan du høre klokkerne ringe helt over til Valletta på den anden side af Grand Harbour. Tårnet blev rejst som et mindesmærke over maltesere, som mistede livet under Anden Verdenskrig, og hver af klokkerne bærer navn efter en helgen.

Insidertips

  • Take the stairs up to the bell chamber for close-ups of the bronze bells and a unique bird's-eye view over Vittoriosa.
  • Combine the visit with a stroll along the waterfront just below the tower.
  • Show up precisely on the hour to hear all 8 bells play in unison.
  • Sunglasses and a bottle of water are essential in the summer months as shade is scarce.
