The Villages of GOZO

Victoria – Main Town of Gozo

The capital of Gozo, Victoria, is also locally referred to as Rabat. Here we find the outstanding Citadel situated high above the present town. These fortifications, reconstructed by the Knights of St John, are of extreme cultural and historical importance and offer a 360-degree view of the island of Gozo. The Citadel also houses the Gozo Cathedral and Museum, the Gozo Museum of Archaeology, the Folklore Museum, the Citadel Armoury, the Old Prison, and the Natural Science Museum. Below, the modern-day town lies around an open square, known as it-Tokk, which functions as a busy marketplace during the day and is transformed into an entertainment and dining space by evening. It is also the seat of two prestigious and competing opera houses, these being Aurora and Astra.
