THREE CITIES

SOUTH EAST

Made up of the three fortified cities of Birgu, Senglea and Cospicua, The Three Cities is a metropolitan area sat in the Maltese southern harbour district.

Birgu, the oldest of the three cities dates back to the Middle Ages whilst the connecting cities of Senglea and Cospicua were founded by the Order of St John in the 16^th and 17^th centuries.

The three cities offer visitors to the island the opportunity to explore a rich variety of interesting historical buildings of different antiquities, such as Fort St Michael and Fort St Angelo, whilst the Cottonera’s location on the sea front and numerous shops, restaurants and café’s mean it offers a truly diverse range of activities for those who are just looking to relax.
