| | senglea (l- isla), malta |
 | | During the 1565 Siege, Senglea was protected by Fort St. Michael on its landward side, and by Fort St. Angelo on its eastern flank. |
 | | The people attribute these victories to the Virgin's intercession, and hence, the feast is popularly called il-Vittorja, the Victory. |
 | | The new city which rose again has now about 4,000 inhabitants, most of whom are connected, in one way or another, with the shipyards on its coastline, but few hotels for Malta holiday tourists. |
