Balluta Buildings is a stunning Art Nouveau apartment block located in St Julian's, Malta, overlooking the picturesque Balluta Bay. Constructed in 1928 for the Marquis John Scicluna, this architectural gem designed by Giuseppe Psaila is celebrated as one of the finest examples of Art Nouveau in Malta. Originally built as luxurious apartments, it has a rich history of housing tenants at nominal rents. The building features intricate floral and geometric decorations, high ceilings, and traditional Maltese tiles, making it a must-see for architecture enthusiasts. Scheduled for restoration in 2025, Balluta Buildings remains a cultural icon and a Grade 1 monument, offering visitors a glimpse into Malta's architectural heritage.
