Although Fort St Angelo is closely associated with the Order of St John, in reality the site boasts a more extensive heritage. A series of lectures will be held to explore the Fort’s medieval past, then known as the Castrum Maris.
A general overview of the stronghold’s medieval history and configuration (by the site Curator Mr Matthew Balzan), will be followed by “The capellania of the Castrum Maris”, targeting the significapel of the Nativity of the Virgin (by Prof. Stanley Fiorini). The last lecture will explore medieval swords and sword fighting (by the Maltance of the troglodyte cha Historical Fencing Association).
A visit to medieval archaeological remains on site and a small reception will wrap the event.
Time and Place: 18:30hrs at the Admiral’s Hall, Fort St Angelo
