The Lieutenancy of Malta and Heritage Malta signed a 25 year tenancy agreement to lease the Enceinte Hall within Fort St Elmo in Valletta. Our Lieutenant, Roberto Buontempo signed on behalf of the Order, whereas for Heritage Malta appeared CEO Noel Zammit.
These premises will now become the official seat of the Maltese Lieutenancy of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem.

We are extremely grateful about this collaboration and the possibilities it holds for our future.
