Talk:Emanuele Luigi Galizia

Bugeja Institute
I think the building is now in modern day Santa Venera, if it is the same building I know.. Continentaleurope (talk) 23:33, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
 * In Santa Venera there are the Istituto Technico Vincenzo Bugeja and the Conservatorio Vincenzo Bugeja, both of which are located in St. Joseph High Road facing the aqueduct. The technical institute was built in 1903, while the conservatory seems to have been built in the 19th century (I can't find an exact date). "Bugeja Institute Technical School" would imply the technical institute, but the date 1888 makes more sense if it refers to the conservatory. Since I was insure as to which building was actually designed by Galizia, I simply listed the name and location as mentioned in the Dictionary of Maltese Biographies.

Thanks for your reply. It origianally used to be named Istituto Technico Vincenzo Bugeja or the like to in Italian (language problem of the time with some preferring Italian over English). The conservatorio was not meant to be a school. The dates are truly confusing but do not rest on one source. The NICPMI also has some mistakes too, such as the raising of the flag on the Ta' Xindi Farmhouse which may have taken place at the battery not the farmhouse.

In any case the buildings are both found in Santa Venera. One is right next to Casa Leoni and one is right next to Wignacourt Arch. It is ok to leave it as it is because the area use to make part of Hamrun before (with a note that it is in modern Santa Venera), BUT both are no longer in Hamrun today.
