Gladiator II Uses Every Possible Inch of Malta to Recreate Rome

"The main set for the Colosseum in both Gladiator films. The fort's existing limestone walls helped create a realistic backdrop for ancient Rome."

for all people who want to see the fort, its closed but you can see it from the Lower Barrakka Gardens if you go all the way to the back, thats how you see it, its the best view you can get without entering, you can also see the gate from the end of the movie

Magnificent place, historic, but main fort area closed to visitors, Malta film studios manage the site now. Still worth a quick visit 👍😊

It's really sad that you can't enter. It looks neglected. It's a shame since it's such an Iconic place.

Visible from Valletta & Birgu (fort St Angelo). Gate is closed. Parts of filmset is visible (roman Temple of Gladiator 2 ?)

The Fort is now closed off to the public and impossible to enter which is such a waste as it's beautiful and you can fit almost an entire town inside it. It was used by the British colony as their military barracks and in more recent times, various different films built their film set here in the but not anymore as it's not taken care of and most of the building are slowly crumbling down.

The public cannot access, as to dangerous & old, this Fort is used for movie filming, Aug 2023 onwards has large false buildings for GLADIATOR II......worth flying a drone over to see DENZEL WASHINGTON & Pedro Pascal

Keep in mind that the fort isn't accessible! Google maps shows you the path but it's blocked!
