Auberge d'Angleterre
Auberge d'Angleterre (Maltese: Berġa tal-Ingilterra) is an auberge in Birgu, Malta. It was built in around 1534 (incorporating an earlier building) to house knights of the Order of Saint John from the langue of England (whose members came from England, Scotland, and Ireland). It now houses a health centre, and it is the best-preserved Hospitaller auberge in Birgu.
