Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Saint Anthony's Battery (Maltese: Batterija ta' Sant'Antnin) is an artillery battery in Qala, Gozo, Malta. It was built by the Order of Saint John in 1731 and 1732 as one of a series of coastal fortifications around the coasts of the Maltese Islands. It is one of only two surviving batteries on Gozo, the other one being Qolla l-Bajda Battery in Żebbuġ.

Summary from Język polski / Polish Wikipedia (plwiki)

Bateria Saint Anthony (malt. Batterija ta' Sant'Antnin, it-Trunciera, ang. Qala Battery) – bateria zbudowana w latach 1731–1734 około 2 km na wschód od miejscowości Qala na wyspie Gozo. Jest jedną z kilku pozostałych do dnia dzisiejszego osiemnastowiecznych fortyfikacji nabrzeżnych zbudowanych przez joannitów i jedną z dwóch na Gozo. Bateria St. Anthony stanowi unikalny przykład obiektu tego typu. Głównie z powodu bardzo dobrego stanu zachowania obiektu oraz tego, że sama bateria jak i jej najbliższe otoczenie nie uległo w zasadzie zmianom od ukończenia jej budowy w 1732 roku.
