Ancient Fortifications

Qawra tower is situated near Qawra point and formed a part of the fortifications built by the Knights of Saint John. These fortifications were originally supposed to stretch all the way down to Valleta and beyond but were never fully completed. Only the Qawra section was finished. The Tower was built in 1637 and later added onto with a Semicircular Gun Platform. Later, there was a coastal entrenchment wall constructed that consisted of flat faced artillery platforms linked together by curtain walls.

The bastion surrounding the tower now houses a pool and sunbathing area and visitors can still visit the old coastal entrenchment wall, which formed a vital part of the defenses built by the Knights.
