Casa Rocca Piccola
A furnished sixteenth-century family palace shows domestic Valletta behind its street façades. Interconnecting rooms, private collections and wartime shelter history distinguish it from the city's state monuments.
Why go
The de Piro family's home makes social history visible through furniture, silver, paintings and Maltese lace. Its rooms were arranged in long sequences above former service spaces, so the layout reveals how a large household worked. The garden and air-raid shelter add different scales of experience to the formal interiors.
