Breakwater of the Grand Harbour

App info: In our app you will find the location, address, opening hours and admission / entrance fee of this spot. If you use the app, you will find additional information and news about this spot on this page.
Among others, the Greek geographer Strabo and the Latin writer Pliny the Elder already made mention of Malta and its sheltered harbours. In circumference the harbour is 15 km long and its length measures 4 km across. At places it can be 30 m deep!
The fortifications of the Grand Harbour are mainly the creation of the Knights of St John, although during the British period (1800-1964) many modifications were carried out.
The once mighty walls are now dwarfed by modern cruise liners, whose upper deck often reaches the top of the walls. Nevertheless the harbour fortifications never cease to amaze.
