Perched above the Grand Harbour, the Siege Bell Memorial is a simple monument symbolizing the plight of the many people who fought and died for Malta during the Second World War. 

It was built in 1992 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of when Malta received the George Cross for the display of bravery and valour shown during the attacks on the island from 1940-42.  
The Siege Bell Memorial was unveiled by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth. 

Its modest design blends with the natural surroundings and majestic fortifications built by the Knights of St John, leaving a lasting impression on all those who visit. The belfry surrounds a heavy bronze bell that is embellished with an image of Madonna in flame.
