Malta is located about 96 km south of Italy and 290 km north of Libya. The capital city is Valletta.

Valletta - a European Heritage City - boasts a magnificent natural grand harbour and houses several majestic buildings including the 16th century Palace of the Grand Masters and Armoury; St John’s Cathedral (a Baroque masterpiece) and Museum; The National Museum of Fine Arts; and the more modern The National War Museum and The Stock Exchange.


Hugh Peralta & Associates’ Office is situated at Valletta - No 3, Independence Square.


This square hosts the classical Auberge D’Aragon which served as quarters for Aragonese Knights during the period the Knights Hospitallers of St John were in Malta - and which today houses the Ministry for Economic Services. On the other side of the square there is the imposing St Paul’s Anglican Cathedral - a neogothic building constructed in 1837 with funds provided by England’s Queen Adelaide.

The centre of the square is mostly taken up with an old palm tree and a monument dedicated to the heroic Dun Mikiel Scerri, the Catholic priest executed in 1799 together with others including Lt. Gio. F. Peralta - an ascendant of Hugh Peralta - by Napolean’s army, for organising an uprising against the French during their brief occupation of Malta.




“No 3” consists of two joined old terraced houses at two levels, enjoying a view of the square as well as of Marsamxett harbour, and Manoel Island with its international yacht marina.
