"The Gozo Citadel, also known as the Cittadella, is a historic fortified city located in Victoria, the capital of Gozo. Perched on a hilltop, the Citadel has served as the island's primary defensive structure for centuries. Enjoy exploring its fortified walls, home to diverse panoramic views of the islands, museums and the Baroque Cathedral of the Assumption while learning how it has been shaped by various civilizations.
The site is not only a symbol of Gozo's resilience but also a testament to the island's architectural and cultural heritage. Exploring the Citadel is like stepping back in time, offering a unique blend of history, culture, and breathtaking views."

"The Citadel dominates the Island’s skyline, towering dramatically above the surrounding landscape, making it visible from practically anywhere on the island.
Although the Gozo Citadel has its origins in the late Middle Ages, the hill on which it stands has been inhabited since Neolithic times. The Citadel was a safe haven from Saracen raids and Barbary corsairs for hundreds of years."

"The citadel of Victoria is very nice and a visit worth if you have some extra time. In the evening the citadel is light. "
