Mary 🇦🇺 so proud of Malta ,💕💕💕🇲🇹👍👍👍
Yes it was hard times ...
I remember the old war museum from the 1980s. This new one is much grander. Malta was a fortress of very brave human decency against inhuman fascism in WW2. The Maltese are some of the best folk on the planet. Love them.
I still they could do so much more ? There is so much space over there !!
What a ""Masterpiece" 🎦🏆 !!!. Steve, I've just watched this. Seen 'other versions' - they don't compare.
Beautiful museum! Reminded me of my late lovely Dad- he served at St Elmo during "WW2" whilst in the "RMA". TANX for the memories.
Cheers mate 👍 🇲🇹 🇪🇺 ©.
I like the place ..But as i said in there suggestions There could be do so much done with that area ...And is that all they could find ..After Its the national Museum ?? Am I being to hard ?? so much wasted space !! and so much locked up without views ??
@@EnglishmaninMalta Steve you're right to a point. Most of that stuff used to be at L-Armerija tal - Palazz. Now its all split up. I would have kept it all together. My Dad (xRMA) used to say that it was a shame that a lot of "WW2" stuff went to Army Surplus auctions post war & Govt was not interested in obtaining any "collectibles" at the time. Sad!.
Cheers mate 👍 🇲🇹 🇪🇺 ©.
Malta has invested a lot of time and money in the restoration. Besides providing education and entertainment it makes a good movie set as well. It's unique to find accurately restored historical sites.
Hello miss peters ...Yes ok place, but lots of wasted space
hi, well done! super thumb up dear friend1 hugs, luke

Hey my dear friend. Do you realize we have been friends for over a year now. I think we met in IAmACreator on Pusa. But I am so glad we did no matter where it was.

hi friend, video cool
HELLO MY FRIEND
Another good video, they must have moved the war museum however, I seem to remember more exhibits and it was on a lower level. They had a wall inside the museum with war medals donated by the recipients, my wife’s uncle included, the George Cross medal was near all the other medals. Anyway, top class video as usual. Cheers.
They have been messing around there for a few years , Maybe it was not ope and there is slow progress with the other part with was a prison
Very interesting!
Yes great vies from over there
Awesome Video !! ✨✨ Liked 👍👍 Thank you 😎😎
Thank you for comments and so sorry late reply but i missed them and then daunting to answer so many please forgive me
Hi again, it looks like they’ve moved the museum into the fort, as I’m sure it was near it, and it only had WW2 exhibits at the time, and they’ve put the George Cross on display too.
I’m sure one of those bells in the display cabinet was the Ohio tanker.
That airplane without wings was one of the Gloucester Gladiators, “Faith is at Ta Qali (I think) and Faith has 19 in its serial number, as that one was 20.
Can you do a video of the air museum at Ta Qali craft village if you haven’t already, they have a Spitfire and Hurricane on display.
I enjoyed every minute of this video.
Cheers!
Great to hear that info! Must go over there again soon
Thank you for the great museum tour. Happy Father's day
hello my friend nice to get your support
Hello nice video my friends great place.Like6 thank sharing
hello nice to hear from you
a palace nice
Thank you for comments and so sorry late reply but i missed them and then daunting to answer so many please forgive me
Video during the war, great! And I did not know that there was a museum! Thank you!
Its a beautiful place, but a big overrated as a national museum
Superb presentation thanks for sharing the info
👍🇬🇧SMILES
love to see your support
I've got a family ticket to see all the places this is on the list, about 13 years ago they open this place for a few days and I came in looking round didn't look anything like this!
Its now a great place
Great video and footage thanks for the information to thanks for sharing cheers 🇬🇧
great to hear from you my friend
Excellent video, more educational stuff please. Thanks again for all your hard work.
Do my best nick.....trying to make the time to get around
Bongu Steve that was amazing,must show my daughter when we over in 3 weeks
Hello rocky, If you like history ...That's the place to go !!
Thanks Steve. I enjoyed that. It's brilliant for anyone interested in Miloitary history and from my own personal viewpoint I thought that it was well worth 10 euros. Of course, it's not for everyone. Looking forward to your next one my friend.
I am not so sure ?? its a big place and they could do a lot more for 10 euro ..i noticed to other part of the fort is getting a face lift, where the prison is ...will be interesting when finished
@@EnglishmaninMalta It would be interesting in the future (when it is finished) to hear all about the prison as that has an interesting history I do believe?
@@davelambert2461 if you watch midnight express it was filmed in that location....
@@EnglishmaninMalta Yes, I did know that Steve. Was it also used as a hospital many years ago?
@@davelambert2461 Not sure, but opposite was the hospital in the knights time , the conference center, in the 16th century by the Order of St. John, and it was known as the Sacra Infermeria or the Holy Infirmary
@ 27.11, this is the yard of the Turkish Prison in 'Midnight Express'. and dormitory cells.
I recommend to all interested in the history of Malta a visit to Fort St. Elmo. I was there in 2017, I found a lot of interesting information from the Middle Ages to this day.
what's nice, The best part of the fort is now being restored and the prison part Its been in lots of movies, Tried to get in but there's security and lots of scaffolding around , Maybe soon !!
Hi Steve, I love what they have done with that fort it looks so good compared to how I remember it. I noticed they have left some of the WW2 additions like some of the Gun emplacements and the watch towers. It's good as that stuff is fast becoming interesting history as well. Good one Steve.
Yes Interesting ..but expected more from the " national museum" ...like u, not been over there from years
hi steve what is the best world war 2 musium in malta to visit, ive been to fort st elmo a few times over the years but im sure you said in another video theres another one thats better, fantastic video thank you :)
You know richard, i heard st elmo was ..But now i hear the one over at birgu is really nice The war rooms are also interesting , now they found some more tunnels underneath them ..Thank you for watching !!
I'm sure they filmed the prison scenes from the film Midnight Express there
Been lots of filming all around malta
Was there 12 years ago been some changes since then.
ua-cam.com/video/VacTp-lAifY/v-deo.html Steve check this out. A British TV show lots of scenes of Malta from about 35 years ago.
Thanks paul i will check it out my friend
Still think could do more
