Castello dei Baroni is an impressive 18th century building situated in Wardija, Malta and was originally used as a hunting and summer residence by the most prominent Knights of the Order of St John. It was elevated to the status of a Castle in 1783 during the reign of Grand Master De Rohan. Despite having gone through various renovations and upgrades to meet today’s needs, it has kept its original form intact. Nowadays it serves as the International Headquarters and Seat of the Supreme Council of the Sovereign Hospitaller Order of St John of Jerusalem, Knights of Malta.
The general public has the opportunity to visit this masterpiece of Maltese history from inside, to walk in the footsteps of famous Knights and Grand Masters and to see where the Knights’ Solemn Investiture ceremonies take place. One can also visit the Knights’ Supreme Council quarters and the Grand Master’s offices together with his private chapel. Part of the proceeds from the entry goes towards charity.
