A UNESCO's World Heritage Site, Valletta was founded on 28 March 1566. Its magnificent network of fortifications extend over 27 km and are perfect example of Renaissance military architecture. The dignified palaces and churches built by the knights of St John form an impressive architectonic complex that led it ti being described as "a city build by gentlemen for gentlemen."
