• Tue, Malta at War Museum n Mdina tour

    2. oktober 2025, Portugal ⋅ 🌙 21 °C

    Caught a Bolt into Birgu to go to the Malta at War Museum. It was amazing - told the story of Malta all during the war, and was taken underground to some WWII shelters. People were in there for between 8 and 11 hrs at a time, no ventilation, no toilets, running water. Women gave birth down there (often with tragic results) and people died down there. 😢 Had pizzas for lunch, then Bolted to Mdina, where we had a walking tour booked. Went down to some catacoombs, which the Romans used as underground cementarys. Was taken all around the town, such amazing history. And some more WWII shelters where the rich people could afford to lay tiles in their own private 'rooms', had curtains and in some cases bunk beds. Home to pack, Lisbon tomorrow.Læs mere
