The National War Museum, Valletta (Google Maps)

The National War Museum in Fort St Elmo ranks among the most popular tourist venues on the Maltese Islands. The museum mainly represents Malta's important military role in the post-1800 period under British rule, especially during the Second World War. It was set up primarily through the efforts of dedicated enthusiasts, founders of the National War Museum Association, and was opened to the public in 1975.
