Wednesday, 5 February 2020, 11:21 Last update: about 8 years ago

On the occasion of the 410th Anniversary of Wignacourt Tower, St Paul's Bay, Din l-Art Helwa is commemorating the laying of the first stone of this first coastal watchtower built in Malta. 

A series of exciting activities are organised daily between the 8th and 10th February from 10am to 4pm which are ideal for families, re-enactments of the laying of the first stone by Grand Master Wignacourt, military displays by Show-in-Arms and tours of the tower with DLH volunteers. 

Participation is free of charge, but donations to the upkeep of the tower by Din l-Art Helwa would be most appreciated.
