Coastal Towers of the Knights of Malta (Part 1) A tour of the towers erected around the coasts of Malta and Gozo by Grand Masters Wignacourt and Lascaris during the period 1609 to 1652. Wignacourt's towers are massive structures that were armed with heavy artillery and strong garrisons. By contrast, Lascaris's towers were smaller affairs that served mostly as watchtowers (one notable exception being St. Agatha's Tower, or Red Tower, in Mellieħa that guarded the Malta/Comino channel as well as Għadira Bay). Lascaris's towers were the predecessors for De Redin's towers that were used to send early warning signals along Malta's coast to Valletta. De Redin's towers are featured in Part 2.
