Victoria

Victoria, the chief town of Gozo, sits in the centre of the island, 6km from the ferry terminal at MÄ¡arr and 3.5km from the resort town of Marsalforn. Victoria’s main attraction is the compact and photogenic citadel – Il-Kastell – with its cathedral and museums.

Victoria is Gozo’s main hub of shops and services. It was named for the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria in 1897. Originally known as Rabat, it is still called that by many of the islanders (and by several road signs).
