    Best cannonball Ever! Honestly it's just a cannonball in a wall, but it feels nice to see it as a gift from the french army in 1798.

    Visible from public road, I remember two cannonball embedded in a building facade. These were fired by the French Napoleonic Army during the clashes and blockade of 1789 @ Zabbar. Only one left now in place, the other is displayed at the Zabbar Sanctuary Museum.
