The Auberge of Aragon

Auberge Of Aragon, Valletta, Malta The Auberge of Aragon, dominating the little square near Archbishop Street, has not changed very much since its construction in 1571. It consists of a groundfloor, and has spacious halls which surround a central courtyard.

The residents of this Inn were knights from the regions of Aragon, Navarre and Catalonia. The head of the Langue was the Grand Conservator i.e. the Chief of Supplies of the Order. The knights of Aragon were entrusted with the defence of St. Andrew's Bastion, that part of the Valletta fortifications near the Upper Barracca Gardens.

For several years between 1921 and 1972 the Auberge of Aragon was the Office of the Prime Minister. Nowadays it houses a Ministry.

The nearby church of Our Lady of the Pilar belonged to this Auberge.
