The Barrakka Panoramic Lifts are located inside the ditch of the fortifications of Valletta, and it links Lascaris Wharf to St. Peter and Paul Bastion and the Upper Barrakka Gardens. It allows access from the Grand Harbour to the Valletta city. It was first constructed in 2012, on the site of a previous lift (1905 - 1973). In 1905, the lift was constructed out of steel, and it was 60 m high. The lift had two cabins that could hold 12 passengers and tickets cost ½d for military personnel and 1d for other clients. Malta's independence in 1964, took a toll on the lifts as a significant amount of the lift's clients were British military personnel and employees. There were significant losses, stopped operation in 1973 and lifts were demolished in 1983. Plans to construct similar steel structure lifts initiate in 2004, were designed by the local firm Architecture Project and inaugurated in 2012. The lifts facilitate access to the historic centre of Valletta to/from the Grand Harbour.

The Barrakka Lift links the Grand Harbour and Waterfront with the city centre above, with its museums and churches, shops and restaurants. It saves time and a long walk uphill and takes just a few seconds! You are charged 1 Euro to go up and it is free to go down. Excellent idea!

We took a bus here from Valletta and it was one of the highlights of our day. We wandered the narrow streets, looking at houses, painted doors, blooming flowers. There’s not much to do otherwise, though harbor views are great. As a bonus we took a water taxi back to Valletta for €2, a steal! It dropped us at Victoria Gate, where we could walk up to the main square.
