La Borsa, Neoclassical building in Valletta, Malta.
The Exchange Buildings features a symmetrical colonnade in the Ionic order across its facade, with three floors above ground and one underground level.
In 1853, the Malta Chamber of Commerce acquired a house belonging to the Priory of Castile, demolishing it to construct La Borsa, completed in 1857.
The structure functions as the headquarters for The Malta Chamber of Commerce, Enterprise and Industry, hosting meetings that shape Malta's business landscape.
The building contains multiple specialized areas including the Lewis Farrugia Courtyard, Sir Agostino Portelli Hall, and the Council Room for various business functions.
The Grade 1 national monument stands as the first purpose-built chamber of commerce in Malta, designed by local architect Giuseppe Bonavia.
