MUŻA
MUŻA is the national community art museum of Malta, located in the Auberge d'Italie in Valletta. Travellers visit this institution to view a collection of fine arts that spans several centuries, featuring paintings and sculptures that reflect the island's artistic history.
Getting There
The museum is located within the fortified city of Valletta. From the city centre or the main bus terminus, it is accessible via a short walk through the city's grid of streets. Depending on your starting point within the capital, the walk typically takes between 5 and 15 minutes.
Visit Duration
Visitors should allow approximately 2 to 3 hours to walk through the galleries and view the permanent collection at a steady pace.
