dbo:abstract
  • Wied Musa Battery (Maltese: Batterija ta' Wied Musa), also known as Swatar Battery (Maltese: Batterija tas-Swatar), is a former artillery battery in Marfa, limits of Mellieħa, Malta. It was built by the Order of Saint John in 1714–1716 as one of a series of coastal fortifications around the Maltese Islands. In the 19th century, the battery was converted into the Marfa Palace Hotel, and it is also known as Palazz l-Aħmar (Red Palace). The structure was extensively modified in the process, and its blockhouse was incorporated into new buildings. Despite this, the parapet is still intact and is among the best preserved gun platforms in Malta. (en)
  • Bateria Wied Musa (malt. Batterija ta' Wied Musa, ang. Wied Musa Battery), znana też jako Bateria Swatar (malt. Batterija tas-Swatar, ang. Swatar Battery) – była bateria artyleryjska w Marfa, w granicach Mellieħa na Malcie. Zbudowana przez Zakon Joannitów w latach 1714-1716 jako jedna z serii nadbrzeżnych fortyfikacji dokoła Wysp Maltańskich. W XIX wieku bateria została przekształcona w Marfa Palace Hotel, w związku z tym znana jest też jako Palazz l-Aħmar (Czerwony Pałac). W tym czasie budowla została mocno zmodyfikowana, a jej blokhauz włączony w strukturę nowych budynków. Pomimo tych przeróbek platforma strzelnicza i parapet są wciąż w dobrym stanie i zaliczane są do najlepiej zachowanych tego typu elementów na Malcie (pl)
