关于此地

Fort Saint Elmo anchors the seaward tip of the peninsula between two deepwater harbours.

The star fort stands on the seaward tip of the Sciberras Peninsula, commanding the entrances to Marsamxett Harbour and Grand Harbour alongside Fort Tigné and Fort Ricasoli. Pietro Pardo designed the original stone layout with a cavalier, covertway, and tenaille. The Order of Saint John erected the strongpoint following naval raids to deny foreign fleets uncontested anchorage in the deepwater channels.

The bastion achieved historical prominence during the Great Siege of Malta, enduring sustained bombardment from Ottoman batteries on Mount Sciberras. Shrapnel from a misfired cannon fatally wounded Ottoman commander Dragut against the ramparts. Grandmaster Jean Parisot de Valette subsequently rebuilt the shattered fort, using Francesco Laparelli to integrate the citadel directly into the capital walls.

Long-term residents often discover that the compound extends far beyond the upper parade ground. Below the main cavalier lies Lower Saint Elmo, where Pinto Stores and the Carafa Enceinte wrap the exposed shoreline. Rebel priests once seized the works during an uprising against the Order of Saint John. British administrators later turned the powder magazine into an armoury, while cinema crews used the lower barracks as a film set.
