Casa Rocca Piccola - Malta
Casa Rocca Piccola is a top rated and award winning 'living museum' in Malta's capital Valletta. Even though situated just a few metres from the President's Palace, it is often missed by the unaware tourist and has earned a reputation of being Valletta's best kept secret!
The ornate palace is a privately owned 16th Century residence built for Don Pietro La Rocca, a Knight of Malta. Casa Rocca Piccola has been passed down the generations for over 400 years and is today the ancestral home of the 9th Marquis de Piro and his family.

Welcome to Casa Rocca Piccola - Valletta, Malta
Casa Rocca Piccola is a palace in Malta, currently occupied by the de Piro family, a noble Maltese family. It is situated in Valletta, the capital city of Malta.
The history of Casa Rocca Piccola goes back over 400 years to an era in which the Knights of St John, having successfully fought off the invading Turks in 1565, decided to build a prestigious city to rival other European capitals such as Paris and Venice.[5] Palaces were designed for prestige and aesthetic beauty in most of Valletta's streets, and bastion walls fortified the new sixteenth-century city.
Casa Rocca Piccola contains over 50 rooms, the majority of which are open for viewing. Ovr the last few years the World War II Air Raid Shelters have provided a dramatic and exciting addition to the tours of the house.

The Toy Museum, Valletta, Malta
We took a visit to The Valletta Toy Museum. Wow what a lot of genuinely rare toys to be seen. A great little place to visit if you are into toy collections.
Website:
The Toy Museum is located in the capital of Malta, Valletta, opposite Casa Rocca Piccola and spreads over three floors.
The Toy Museum houses a very large and impressive collection of toys from the 1950s onward including model planes, boats, Matchbox cars, farmyard animals, trains and dolls.
This museum was opened by Vincent Brown in 1998 after Brown’s visited a very similar museum in England and actually displays his personal collection accumulated over 30 years. Vincent Brown strongly believes that toys help to recapture memories of childhood, adventures and fun. The unique collection is mostly displayed in glass cabinets and is more suited to nostalgic adults than children who wish to play with the toys.
