Victoria (Rabat)

Victoria, also known as Rabat or by its title Città Victoria, is the capital city of Gozo, the second largest island in Malta.

In the heart of Victoria lies the Cittadella (Citadel), formerly known as il Castello, which has been the centre of activity of the island since possibly Neolithic times, but is known to be first fortified during the Bronze Age c. 1500 BC. It was later developed by the Phoenicians and continued into becoming a complex Acropolis by Roman times.
