Dwejra Watch Tower – Heritage Saved : Heritage Restored
Standing alone amidst the harsh, natural scenery of Gozo, Dwejra Watch Tower has a fascinating history. Today, visitors can explore this recently restored knight’s era heritage site, which dates from 1652, and be rewarded with stunning roof top views overlooking Gozo’s dramatic coastline.
The tower’s original role was to provide protection to the coastline at Dwejra during the time of Grand Master Lascaris. The tower also guarded Il-Ġebla tal-Ġeneral, the General’s Rock or, as it is referred to today, the Fungus Rock. On this tiny, isolated rock grew Cynomorium coccineum or Fungus Melitensis, which the Knights considered to be highly valuable. The fungus was believed to possess powerful medicinal virtues.
