Castello Zamittello, Victorian castle in Mġarr, Malta
The square-shaped limestone structure features one central turret and four corner guard posts, with a Christian cross mounted above the main tower.
Built in the 19th century by Sir Giuseppe Nicola Zamitt, the castle has belonged to the same family for over 200 years.
The castle reflects the architectural preferences of wealthy 19th-century Maltese nobility, incorporating elements from Norman and Victorian styles into its design.
The castle functions as an event venue with capacity for 500 guests outdoors and 200 indoors, permitting music until 3 a.m.
The four corner turrets, while resembling military structures, serve no defensive purpose and were built purely for decorative reasons.
