This three-part podcast series focuses on the pivotal role played by Jean Parisot de Valette during the Great Siege of Malta in 1565.
In this first episode, we explore the knights' preparation for the conflict, including their fortifications and defenses, the reasons for their presence on the island, and the political and diplomatic context of the time.
We'll delve into the history of the Knights Hospitaller and how they came to be stationed in Malta, as well as the key players and events that led up to this epic clash.
