The Capture of Fort Saint Elmo was a pivotal event during the Great Siege of Malta in 1565. This siege was a significant conflict in the Mediterranean between the Ottoman Empire, led by Grand Master Suleiman the Magnificent, and the Knights of St. John, also known as the Knights Hospitaller. Fort Saint Elmo was a crucial fortification guarding the entrance to the Grand Harbor of Malta.
