Wignacourt Aqueduct

English: The Wignacourt Aqueduct is a 17th-century aqueduct in Malta, which was built by the Order of Saint John to carry water from springs in Dingli and Rabat to the newly-built capital city Valletta. The aqueduct was carried through underground pipes and a system of arches along depressions in the ground. Arches can be found in the localities of Attard, Balzan, Birkirkara, Fleur-de-Lys and Santa Venera. Water towers were also built at Santa Venera, Ħamrun and Floriana, and several fountains were built in Floriana and Valletta.
