Fondazzjoni Wirt Artna is holding a special event at the Saluting Battery, Valletta on Tuesday 10th February 2015 to mark the feast day of the Apostle Saint Paul patron saint of Malta.

For this occasion, there they are offering guided tours of the battery at 10.00am, 11.00am and 1.00pm. At 12.00 midday a full-gun salute will be fired from all the saluting guns at the same.

Also for this occasion, FWA will hold a special opening of the War HQ tunnels under the Upper Barracca along with the St. Peter and Paul Counter-guard. Both properties have been undergoing continuous restoration for the past two years and they are now almost ready.
