📍 Albert Town, Marsa - Malta | Not for the faint hearted and definitely not a touristic hot spot... this is Albert Town Neighborhood which is considered Malta's Most Dangerous Neighborhood.
This outskirt of the harbour-side village of Marsa is home for many African immigrants, dodgy abandoned buildings ...but also a warehouse mecca for traders and Carnival companies.

We lived in Malta for just over a year in 1969 (Navy) We love Malta and the lovely Maltese people. I always thought that although the world is changing for the worse, that Malta would remain unchanged. Thank you for your beautiful videos, they bring back fond memories.

The people of Marsa have had to live with the stigma of being from Marsa for many decades, bearing the brunt of everything that the rest of the Maltese population did not want on their doorstep. Being called 'the most dangerous' neighbourhood for obvious click-bait does not benefit anybody except yourself. Marsa has been ignored by both political parties when in government, and the total abandonment you're seeing here is the result of years and years of disregard by the Maltese government. Marsa has benefited Malta and gone downhill as a result. It's about time this town and its people are recognised for what they've suffered.

@carbugnov1952 2 ай бұрын

It is called Albert town , named for Prince Albert, the husband of queen Victoria. That old arch on the water canal was from the time of queen Victoria, that's why on it inscribed in two circles you see the letters V and R for Victoria Regina. V . R . you can see them in old letter pillar boxes.

Thanks for the video. Never knew it was called Albert Town, but it looks very familiar. When attending high school just up the road from there we used to come down to the bars to buy "Ftira" for lunch. I suppose what you did not mention is that 50 years ago that place was Malta's commercial hub, before the freeport was opened, hence all the warehouses. It definitely needs a clean up, and an upgrade. Cheers and Thanks.

I (female tourists) was here (by mistake) today. It looks like any other port/warehouse area. I have been in Portugal, in a small harbor town, and it looked like Marsa. It is not scary, it is just run down. Putting poor people in same category as criminals is very sad. You will ind more criminals in rich place areas.

I worked at the Centre for migrants as a nurse about 10 years ago right next to the Tiger bar. It used to be a school but was closed down because of the smell from a nearby abattoir. Not the prettiest part of the island. But it is what it is.

VR Means Victoria Regina. In other words the canal and bridge was built during the reign of Queen Victoria.

The submarine was never functional, it was made for the 2000 U571 film which had scenes filmed in Malta. Officially its assigned as "Dock no 7" but us locals call it the ship cemetery. There are vessels that have been abandoned for years. It's also engulfed in a horrible stench.

Also the submarine may be from the TV series Das Boot (2018-) as I found an article from tvmnews. KZfaq won't let me post the link though!
