Set in a complementing historic building, the
museum presents a multifaceted overview of art
and artistic expression in Malta from the Late
Medieval period to the contemporary. The palace
was officially inaugurated as the National Museum
of Fine Arts in 1974 and has since then been
Maltas most important museum for the arts.
Highlights from the collection on display include
paintings by leading local and internationally
acclaimed artists, precious Maltese silverware,
statuary in marble bronze and wood, fine
furniture items and splendid majolica pieces.

Dragut (also called Turgut Reis), Barbary pirate
and Ottoman admiral (1514-1565), operating
largely along the Barbary coast. Dragut was a
protege of Barbarossa (Khayr ed-Din). He was
known as a cruel and brutal opponent, and feared
among many Christians. His line was closer to the
sultan of Constantinople than the local North
Africans. His home town would be named after him,
Turgutreis. Dragut joins the Ottoman forces in an
attack on Malta and June 23 1565 is killed in
battle on the ramparts of Fort Saint
Elmo. Dragut's body is brought to Tripoli, and
buried in the mosque named after him.
