Ta' Xindi Farmhouse, Grade 1 heritage farmhouse in San Ġwann, Malta.
The limestone building rises two floors high on a hill, featuring traditional vernacular architecture with modest design elements typical of Maltese construction.
During the French blockade of 1798-1800, the farmhouse served as headquarters for over 550 Maltese resistance soldiers under Vincenzo Borg's leadership.
The structure exemplifies 18th-century Maltese farming practices through its layout, materials, and architectural elements that reflect rural traditions.
Located near Mater Dei Hospital at coordinates 35.906108, 14.477336, the farmhouse maintains its residential function while preserving historical features.
A commemorative plaque on the facade marks where the British flag first flew in Malta in 1799 during the resistance against French occupation.
