Fort Mosta

Fort Mosta is a striking polygonal fort located in the heart of Mosta, Malta. Constructed by the British between 1878 and the 1880s as part of the Victoria Lines, this historical site still serves a practical purpose today as an ammunition depot for the Armed Forces of Malta. It’s a fascinating glimpse into military architecture and history, making it a worthwhile stop for those interested in the island’s past. One memorable detail is its unique polygonal shape, which sets it apart from many traditional forts.
