Local Tip
The museum is in a historic granary building — look for the old grain storage pits in the floor.
The Gozo Nature Museum is housed in a historic building within the Cittadella in Victoria, Gozo, once used as a granary by the Knights of St John. Managed by Heritage Malta, it displays aspects of Gozo's natural history including geology, minerals, fossils, local flora and fauna, and marine life.
The museum's location in a former granary is itself part of the story — the building contains old grain storage pits in the floor, visible to visitors. The displays cover the geological formation of the Maltese islands, the natural environment of Gozo, and the impact of human activity on the landscape. A combined Cittadella Museums ticket covers this and the other Heritage Malta museums in the complex.
