Visit the sumptuous rooms of the 16th-century Casa Rocca Piccola Palace. Join a guided tour or explore on your own with an audioguide to learn about the history of this aristocratic family residence.
Casa Rocca Piccola is a 16th century palace and living museum. Built over 400 years ago for Don Pietro La Rocca, a Knight of Malta, it is now the ancestral home of the de Piro family, a Maltese Noble family.

The palace contains over 50 rooms, many of which are open for viewing. You can see a collection of furniture, silver and paintings that add to the aesthetic riches of Malta. There are literally hundreds of magnificent objects to see including modern paintings interspersed with the ancestral portraits of the Marquises de Piro and the Barons of Budach.

You will learn all about the unique customs and traditions of the Maltese nobility.

Under Casa Rocca Piccola you will find a network of tunnels cut out from the rock and used in World War II as air raid shelters. Over 100 people sheltered here from the bombs that poured on Valletta. The palace's air raid shelters provide a dramatic and exciting addition to the tours of the house and garden.
