The Saluting Battery in Valletta ,Malta overlooks the three cities of Birgu (Vittoriosa), Senglea (Isla) and Bormla (Cospicua).
The Saluting Battery is an old artillery battery of cannon in Valletta, Malta. It was constructed in the 16th century by the Order of Saint John, on or near the site of an Ottoman battery from the Great Siege of Malta.
It is perhaps the oldest saluting battery still in operation anywhere in the world. It is equipped with eight working replicas of SBBL 32-pounders which fire gun signals daily at 1200 and 1600.
