About this place
The Siege Bell War Memorial is a colonnaded rotunda in Valletta that commemorates the Second World War Siege of Malta. A large bell forms the centrepiece of the structure, which stands as a formal tribute to those who died during the siege.
The memorial's position gives clear views across the Grand Harbour, one of the most historically significant natural harbours in the Mediterranean. The colonnaded design frames the harbour outlook and provides a sense of the scale and openness of the site.
The monument serves both as a place of remembrance and as a prominent architectural landmark within Valletta's lower reaches, close to the waterfront.
