Fort Binġemma (formerly written as Fort Bin Jema or Fort Bengemma, ) is a polygonal fort in the limits of Rabat, Malta. It was built between 1875 and 1878 by the British as part of the Victoria Lines. The fort has been illegally occupied by the Buttigieg family since 2009, who occasionally use it as a restaurant. It is set on a hill of around 180m (590 feet) above sea level. Before the building of the fort, there was a Roman village.MacGill, Thomas (1839), "A handbook, or guide, for strangers visiting Malta", p.126-127. Read more on Wikipedia
