Wignacourt Aqueduct
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
the Aqueduct at Santa Venera.
The Wignacourt Aqueduct in Malta is a very old building, running through Balzan, Birkirkara, Fleur-De-Lys and Santa Venera. This was built by the Order of Saint John between 1610 and 1615 to carry water from Dingli and Rabat to Valletta and it remained in use until the 20th century. It is named after Alof de Wignacourt, the Grandmaster who financed its building.
