People can this afternoon visit the complex of tunnels where the Battle of Malta was plotted and coordinated during the Second World War. The underground tunnels of the War Headquarters, which are beneath the Upper Barrakka, are not usually open to the public, as Fondazzjoni Wirt Artna is still restoring them in a bid to open the doors this summer. The restoration work of the 28,000 square metre complex kicked off in 2009 and has so far cost €1.7 million, but more work needs to be done. People can visit the complex and the Saluting Battery until 5pm for €5.
