St George's Tower, Military tower in St Julian's, Malta
The limestone tower rises at St George's Bay with a square plan, two floors, and a turret positioned on the rooftop.
The Knights of St John constructed St George's Tower in 1638 as part of the Lascaris towers project to strengthen coastal defense systems.
The tower represents traditional Maltese military architecture and stands as a Grade 1 national monument, recognized by MEPA in 1995.
Located within the grounds of the Corinthia Hotel St George's Bay, the tower maintains its original structure despite requiring preservation work.
The structure functioned as a radio communications post during World War II and later served as a fire control station near Fort Pembroke.
